Pete, there's another phenomenon that you overlook. Learning curve. Most
things in life are easy to do but hard to do well. If you are willing to
try it and if you find out that it doesn't work quite right, try it again,
(and again) then go for it. But if you just want it done right and right
the first time, let somebody qho has already worked his way up the learning
curve have a go.
But it could be an educational experience.
