Thanks Ron for putting that in writing is it my suspicion as well. Logical I guess. But proof would be nice. Thank you all for being so welcoming. It is my belief if we share what we know then we chip away at what we don't know. I have more stuff to share (nothing special) and as I get time I will let you know what I have. Mostly things I've copied from books. Off for the day.
