I was going to send you the $150 instead but I had already ripped the CD's out of the backs of the three books. Sorry. Instead, if you are ever in Clemson, SC I owe you the beverages of your choice in unlimited quantities. (That is..if there is any left when I get through drowning myself for three totally non productive days due to what you so graciously showed me was a 20 second fix.) This was the nicest weekend on record in CLemson, 70 degrees, beautiful skies, mountains(northwest south carolina) were awesome, and here I sat looking at the one eyed monster in a complete funk! PS. I am sending my $$$ to join the thread. I am impressed, grateful, and eager to contibute. -- Sincerely, Jim Oswald President / CEO Innova Communications, LLC
