I spent some time looking for this problem on the internet but could not find it. I also spent some time trying to solve the problem given that there was a black knight on a1, but I could not. Mainly, I wanted to learn if my time was wasted ... and I am glad to see that it was not! Thank you for fixing it! PS: I have fixed my e-mail address in my profile. (AT&T Broadband, formerly MediaOne, which I _still_ use, had to give up its old domain name after many years due to a lawsuit. But I switched the CCC profile to reference a separate Yahoo address.)
