Thank you Eric very much appreciated. If people remember me for no other reason than "shoot from the shadow side" I can't think of anything more fitting. Dr. Sir William Osler's epitaph. "I taught students in the wards." Is so descriptive of what he did throughout his medical life I thought this would be mine, that is if I go!;-) "Shoot from the shadow side." ;-) Thanks again for your most kind remarks. ted
