No, I'm playful. Don't worry. I probably suffer from, "If all else fails,
dig the manual out of the trash." I did not mean to not inculde the source
of a quote. Is modified <sniped> bottom posting all right? I'd really hate
for people to have to surf through tons of stuff to reach the meat.  Yep I
see that is prefered.

I hope I'm not sticking out like a sore thumb. I'm actually a newbie
Japanese Student (Student of Japanese not of Asian birth) and a Systems
Administrator for a small company. I may come off as way to US and I
apologize if I do. Japanese women would probably call me a Bear.

Please excuse my fumblings.
