Too true. I do have a copy somewhere, but it's been a while since my last perusal. I must say my all time favorite book would be "The Ten- Speed Commandments" by Mike Keefe. This book has been bathroom reading in my places of residence for for about 15 years. You may not learn much technical information, but your SO will sure wonder what the chuckling is coming from the bathroom. enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
