At least I know I'm not the only one that thought that! $\:\)$ _________________________ Good grammar ain't easy.

We hear that kind of thing all day long some days, don't we? $\:o$ I am glad to see I wasn't alone in my thinking. Jeanne

Reminds me of my college days when the University Health Service would run tests for STDs on everyone, no matter what their chief complaint was on presentation. _________________________ The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present.
