QUOTE (dvandorn @ Jul 31 2008, 09:09 PM)  Gee, Nick, it sounds like you're a good candidate for "upgrade"! <Sigh>...I got a laundry list now, and it's only gonna get longer. Amazing how your body's warranty seems to expire the moment you turn 40... -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
