Colin, I would appreciate it, but I'll talk to you about it after I get back
from vacation if that works out for you as we're almost in the danger zone
with finances, if I don't have to go in to the credit card resources I'll
paypal something out to you, I would like one but I can't commit until after
my vacation, not even half over and we'll see what I have for money when I
get back.
