I agree with that 100 percent. ;-) ELG440@xxxxxxx wrote: In a message dated 8/25/2005 8:22:26 P.M.

But, as usual I failed to make my point. The Standard, the Illustrated Standard, (which are two different forms of the same thing) are but two more tools to use for breeding. You can't build a building with blueprints. They are a guide, but you still need the tools, supplies and a great deal of money. Kind of like breeding dogs. Can you tell we signed the contract today to add onto the house? We want to add a closet and it has taken us two years to get the plans approved, locate a builder, and figure out what to do with all the extra room when we are done. I agree with Tish, I will never move again.
