Thanks for the kind words. I hope somebody can make use of the info over time. After composing that tome, I watched movies for another another 3 1/2 hours. It just keeps getting better.

By the way, I am trying to learn how to navigate/use the capabilities of the forum for posting. Just used the Bio space to update my profile and provide the specifics of my HT.

I haven't been able to break the code on the use of the various icons (smiley face, etc.) in a post. Since my sense of humor tends to be a bit dry and off-center, I want to make sure that it comes across without upsetting anyone. Also, I read through the info available on adding pictures, but it is a tad confusing. Can some good soul provide some detailed user-friendly direction on these two issues for a techno-challenged guy? Given the tone of the community here, I'd like to participate until I wear out my welcome.
