Thanks Jefrem,

I like the pinpoint accuracy of your assessment. 
I don't want to give up on 'Charlie' just yet. 
The 2002 was all part of my 'grand plan', I don't know how I was ready 
to gave in/up so easily.

I'm going to be out of computer-range until tomorrrow and just want to say
I appreciate and need your responses but won't be able to reply, let you
know i got them, immediately.

Thanks for your support and advice.
