It was a good guess, because if I had seen the 'a crewing', I probably would
have worked it in there. So I was just being funny, but not punny in this
case, However, I have been known to be both on numerous occasions. <smile>

It gets more complicated than that, Cindy, as I didn't notice the misspelling. I read my email with JAWS, and if it doesn't mispronounce something, I have no reason to think that it isn't spelled correctly. So I wasn't playing on the words. I just made the association with racing, because I thought I had heard that she was doing that, and her large volume of scanning.
