Hey, Colin:
Yeah, I was just talking in generalities! (smile)
And, hey, I'll take every longer day I can get after the 21st!!!!!!! (big
smile)
Living back here in west-Central lower Michigan, it feels like I'm living in
Alaska at this time of the year, since sunshine and temps above freezing are
at a real premium!

actually, tom, the days get longer after the 21st of December, but i'm sure
you new that.
makes me wonder why the new year doesn't start on Dec. 22...seems like a
logical place to have the beginning of the year instead of 9 days later.
