I really appreciate them; many seem to have been lost or bounced back (bloody AOL) or gone off as SPAM but dozens got through and many came as posts; read and understood but not posted on the boards as inappropriate for public consumption.

Believe me they meant more than I can express and I was staggered by both the quantity and the overwhelming similarity of opinions conveyed.

It's always nice to discover we live in the REAL WORLD and not in tabloid world!
