It is amazing how many aliases are taken. > [snip] This is a really good suggestion. Will indicated in the other thread that this name was hypothetical (even though it was later revealed that it was an actual name), so I'm positive that no slight was intended by Will. He just forgot that he was in a different thread were there was no indication that the name was hypothetical, talking about the same subject. Will was seriously trying to avoid mentioning an actual name and foobared. A mistake that could happen to anyone. Well, maybe not me. :) ;) KarinsDad
