not a big deal, but when I use the word "clone" - I meant it as "exactly the
same" - I would have used "modified" to mean changes - the crafty I use is
"modified" (you may use clone).  I understand that in some usages, "clone" means
very similiar and may not be "exactly the same" thus I understand where you
coming from.
