Not trying to get at you :-) Don't worry. I took no offense (although I am embarrassed by my blunder). And we both have the goal of making sure that the OP sees the corrected information.

When I see that someone readily fesses up to his misstatements, that tends to make me put more trust in them as a reliable source. It's one of the best signs I know. Folk who refuse to ever admit that they could make even the most trivial of misstatements are ones that you can't ever trust; yes, there are plenty such folk. -- Richard Maine | Good judgment comes from experience; email: last name at domain . net | experience comes from bad judgment. domain: summertriangle | -- Mark Twain

Thank you. I am good at apologizing for blunders. I've had lots and lots of opportunity to practice. -j -- Jeffrey Goldberg http://goldmark.org/jeff/ I rarely read HTML or poorly quoting posts Reply-To address is valid |
