Roger, Really sorry to hear about this, good luck! And get well soon! _________ I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps getting harder to find one. Every morning is the dawn of a new error. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. |
