I'd love to know why I have so much trouble with typing two o's. <GRIN> 
One of those mysteries that will haunt me for the rest of my life, no 
doubt. I know I come across as easily ruffled by this whole issue of 
progress, and that I come across as taking it very personally. It's just 
that I sincerely believe in well-thought-out progress, and when it comes 
to thinking things out well, APH is among the best. I shudder to think 
that some of that progress could be impeded because people who think a 
little out of the box and come up with suggestions feel muzzled. I would 
have no use for games and the like. But maybe the suggestion of that 
facility will spark someone else's thoughts on the matter and give them an 
idea which will someday become indispensible to us BP users. How many of 
today's necessities of life came about that way? We'd probably be 
surprised. Meanwhile, I'm off to type a double o a hundred times. <GRIN>
