Bob, I THANK YOU very much for taking the time to type all of that.
And, I know it did take time.  I was actually considering typing
a similar note to the now "Stephen James" but, I held off.

Honestly, I have a feeling that it will fall on deaf ears.
Certain people just don't or won't get it!!  Ever!!

Ditto on the last paragraph.  Been there, done that many times over the
past 30 years.  I am lucky just to break even.  Multiple times in just
the past month or so.

Again thanks for taking the time.  All well said!!

Have yourself (and the other regulars) here a great weekend.

Les
