Hello Bob,

I'm glad to recibe your news. Yes, I'm getting help here in the group and
Warp and the other partners were traying to solve my questions.
About the arrow, please, can you tell me why you put a "y" in the vector?
I don't know about cars, you said a Subaru Impreza Outback Sport I think
that's a 4x4. Is it correct? I don't know what's "waterpump" I searched on
the dictionary but it doesn't appear.
Also, I wear eyeglassses, but I haven't got a progressive lenses. I have
short-sightedness, but I don't use them to read, only with the computer, the
TV...
Well, now I'm thinking to do a different background, a cloudy scene, but I
want to do it differnt than the others that I have, I'm thinking... :)

Best regards,
Oleguer Vilella
