I consider myself of above average mechanical abuility, but I'm pretty well computor illiterate. So I have a really tuff time making this thing work, so as a result,.. I read alot of other peoples posts looking for problems simular to my own & don't spell so pretty good either. I'm from an era...

Yep.. I'm now a card carrying member of the old farts club. Lost my need for speed Years ago. I'm not in a big hurry to get anywhere anymore. I always tell people that I was picked up by a flying saucer in 1971 & have been 15 minutes late for everything every since. rofl John

Just remember.... what goes around..... comes around 10 fold. I know it probably doesn't help much.... but on several occasions it's kept me from choking the living sh!t out of several individuals, & winding up in jail. I feel for ya brother. John
