Milton, Thanks for straightening out that bit of geographical dissidence. I visited Latvia a couple of years ago and it is a loooong way from the Rhine River valley. This Talsen/Talsi story reminds me of the Kornegay Texican I ran into a while back who thought we were all Irish because he had read somewhere that a lot of the family had once lived in Dublin. His brother corrected that one by drolly explaining the difference between Dublin Ireland and Duplin County, NC...<g> Robert -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert L.
