So in this whole discussion, did anyone ask for the LC? If it's not spoken
for, I am interested in it, and will pay any S&H fees. I am replying to the
list rather than Mouse directly since direct mail messages seem to be
ignored by his email server....

Yes, my beloved service provider Telus has decided to farm out their email
to Google...

So Mouse, let me know.

thanks
alex
