No idea how that's happening then, maybe mail Garmin's software support folks, or check out their wiki if they do one? Cheers - Jaimie -- If you can't measure it, it's not science.

Which looks like a comment that missed Ernest Rutherford's: `All science is either physics or stamp collecting' - which remark acknowledges that mindless cataloguing (i.e., traditional biology[1]) is a valid part of science. Rowland. [1] Molecular biology is a different matter entirely; as is the sort of higher-level biology they're doing these days with heavy stats.
