Paul,

we've had numerous people chime in and give you sincere thanks for your help to their problems.

Now I'm somewhat of a lurker on the list, but I feel compelled to say you're a Prince among men, you've got such a generous spirit and make it such a privelege to be part of the group.

I've personally benefitted from your work and your generosity and I'm just feeling the urge to say so right now

peace out
