Hi Bill
You got the #1 spot for two reasons;
1) Many of us think YOU ARE #1
2) You started the topic - and a great one it is. I loved reading the
stories, and by putting them on the site I hope that many Newbies will
read them in the future.
Hope you have a good New Year, and you will see daylight within a few
months <g>
Best Regards, Brian
