Deleted due to insinuations that I was claiming the work of others as my own.

<br />It's highly probable that it came from Ron and from Russ and a bunch of others. I don't claim to have invented any of this, I just compile and assemble to meet others' needs. If I'd meant it to be a published article, I'd have to have credited at least half a dozen folks who contributed. Next time I'll keep this to myself.

<br />Wow Gary, what other nuggets are you hiding from the rest of us? That was a great article! Too bad that had Lou not taken the time to write up his version, we novices would not have had the benefit of either one.

<br />The problem I have with using the Internet in general for research is that you never know whether you're just getting some crackpot, or tried-and-true methods and results. That's why I come here, where I can get feedback from a variety of people and see how well the techniques I'm considering actually work.

<br />Gary and Tim. You might find a more sympathetic ear to your concern had you asked a question first. Gary, your first statement drew the conclusion that Lou had copied Mr Ashby's article. Tim, you insinuated the same. Neither of you asked - "Hey Lou, is this a new article? I saw similar stuff by Ron Ashby here...". The question of intent or original source could have been easily cleared up.
