Aw damn, Ed. You just got back to us now this. It must be Keane's fault. Everything that goes wrong in RADP is only six degrees of separation from him. ;-) I don't pretend to understand everything you wrote about it but I can tell it isn't day patient kind of thing. PD, prayers and best wishes go out to you. Jack -- My email address on the header is a non-monitored spam catching account.
