Yes --- 4 months is perfect, especially for people that work 1 or 2 hours a
night
on them. And again, sorry Markus, I lost steam.....Working on coo-coo for 2
months <my first entry to irtc> only to find out I submitted to a closed web
site.
Very frustrating..............Steve, I am working on the Black Robe. It will
be nice
to see the web page -----  I am looking forward to participating in
something active.
