PS: Glenn...Speaking for myself, I think that all views are welcome and appreciated here.

That's one of the beautiful things about an open forum like this...

Any blunt or cold advice will quickly be countered by someone else's warm and fuzzies....

It's very nice to get a well rounded perspective on these issues, and I think information is empowerment, which, like it or not, translates into "support"... :-)

So, again, speaking for myself, please post any ideas, comments, feedback or information you feel is appropriate...
