Kari,

You're right and lucky to have someone at your side participating. I'd say OK 
even to a "I do not
understand, but it's one of your aspects. And I want you, with all your 
aspects". We are a strange
sort of artists who try to break boundaries or just love to move in the best 
way within boundaries
(believe it or not, I still do program with RPG2 and have advised a client to 
buy an Advanced/36 as
I think you can do a sort of web store even with this kind of machine coupled 
with a PC).

Have nice times, out there
