John, you have a very good point.
Resourceful I am, smart I may not be, but most definately charmed! It
never crossed my mind this could be dangerous. I never suffered any ill
effect from it. (only did it once,seemed like a good Idea at the time)
At any rate I hereby do solemly promise to you and the rest of the list
I will never do this again! <grin>
Now, you have a better way to get the sludge out?
