    Hey Ian, Sam, all,
    I love Douglas Adams. So I just had to throw this one out for entertainment
    purposes...

    "There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers
     exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will
     instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more
     bizarrely inexplicable.
     There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

    take care
    rick
