Indeed, if this is true, you must have been the *only* one
I convinced, Liam, if my mail is any indication. (I did
get a nice e-mail from a chap the other day who admitted
that after thinking I was feeding him a crock of bull for
over three months the light finally went on and he realized
I was right. :-)

In any case, I'm right, and I think this solution you
offer here may be a good one. I intend to approach it
in a slightly different way when I get the chance.
(I was looking at my notes just the other day.) But
there are only about, oh, 100 things in line first. :-(

Cheers,

David
