Folks,

A quick note to all who responded to my thread to say "thank you!" for the
wonderful feedback. The information you provided really helps clarify the
subject for me, and I appreciate it. I will read through all of the
responses again and reply directly to inquiries made to me.

Thank you for making this forum such a valid and valuable resource. I am
glad I found it!

Mike

PS - I extend the same to all who contributed information about the "Boehm
and Albert Systems" post I made the other week -- frankly, I was stunned at
the incredible amount of helpful information you offered. Many sincere
thanks! --Mk
