Until now it just makes no sense because I don't have Trent's definitions/ answers to the above. We don't have to agree just to understand each other better. I'm just curious, that's all. To Trent: What's the problem with having the above posed questions answered? Time certainly is not the issue. -- © Rado S. -- You must provide YOUR effort for your goal!
