Mr. B, in my book you are at the top of the hill...I have learned more from participating here (in a lesser involved way than some others) than I have learned in 50 years at the races, following all the \'geniuses\' out there.  Do not ever get defensive...there\'s no need to waste that time in conversation.  You have more important and positive work to do.
