The issue has been resolved at this point. Thanks for your input, I 
appreciate it. Just out of curiosity, why is it that you tell me to not 
"top-post". I have been using usenet for 7 years now, and as far back as I 
can remember, people always top-posted as that was the default option. I 
think most news clients are configured by default to top-post. Personally, I 
can't stand bottom-posting, but to each their own. By the way, is there an 
FAQ for this group that I missed somewhere along the line?

Thanks
