You make a good point and I agree entirely. Certainly I hope that people have
understood that my comments on this thread were in a humouroud vein, but in
looking back I suspect that they are not clear in that regard. My wife and I

catagory. (Besides which, even if I tried I could never pull it off - my wife
is much to smart to fall for any of that!)
