Michael............
I'm not sure that "Calspeed" and spam can be used in the same sentence. As
a teacher, I'm sure that there is some grammer rule that forbids it(grin).
I am usually nonconfrontational BUT your response was an afront to me. You
should NEVER have reason to apologize for what you say on the list. I for
one have never gotten anything but good advise and pleasure from your posts
and adventures. Keep it up.
(WHEW, I feel much better now.)
