Rob,

Muchas Grassy...  :)   First chance I get I'll evil eye it, but right now
I'm heads down in a project and I'm also in the middle of putting the
finishing touches on the DC user's groups tech conf for November...and I
know some of you folks are gonna be there... (www.wash-midrange.org)...:)

new stuff OMITS what's new in any language?  Amazing!  What the heck does
IBM think we use to program with?  :)

Nah, just a pointer to the PDF is sufficient...will probably keep David
happier as well...:)   Not to mention the few toadies out there that think
getting more than 5 emails a day is overload...:)

thanks!

Don in DC
