GMan! Re: WINDERSTAT ................. This is like Christmas all over again!! I have had enormous fun opening different pretty parcels on shelves in the Library (Map) and seeing what I might find inside. In not a few cases I opened a parcel, saw what was inside, and said to myself "So THAT'S where you've been hiding, I knew you were around SOMEWHERE". ............... In others " I thought I got rid of YOU years ago" Having said that the grey boxes yeilded nothing; NO response when clicking on them. I wish I had discovered Winderstat in my youth (rather than my dotage). So many thanks again Roger W.
