I agreed up to this point. :) I appreciate everything that Bruce, Dann, Hyatt, and all the moderators, and moderators to be, do for this forum. But I do think the forum has been rather "dead" as far as real information goes, in the last 3-6 months. But better moderators or worse moderators won't help this much. Only better MEMEBERS. So I guess the question is, when will start interviewing for membership to this forum? :) Slate > >Perhaps it would be an improvement even. > >-- >GCP
