I'm sorry - I know that you aren't supposed to post a message that 
just says "hear, hear!", but I have to chime in with Cindy.  I'm a 
hopeless mess when it comes to combining posts - is there a FAQ or a 
how-to for those of us who webview?  And in all honesty, if I tried 
to combine posts, that would mean (for me - and my hideous short term 
memory):

*  printing out the message I want to respond to
*  re-typing just enough of the prior posts to let others know what 
in the world I'm talking about
*  remember what moved me to respond in the first place
*  type it down

And that's a whole lot to ask of a bear of little brain.  I feel for 
those who get innundated with e-mails and/or have to wait for a War & 
Peace-sized Digest to download.  And I understand that we have over 
2000 members in this group now and things are getting a bit mad.  But 
the reason this group was created was to let HP fanatics talk amongst 
ourselves.  

I love this board and the people on it.  There has got to be a happy 
medium???
