Bluenose:

Understood.

Everyone:

It seems someone else has discussed before what i am slowly working my way toward here; i refer to the post of October 12th by SmillinBuddha in this thread. Unfortunately i'll be away for a few months and probably won't be able to comment upon this further until i get back.

Enjoy!
