I have not read, Strunk and White, in ages... It’s sitting in my office.... “Forcible” writing........ I remember that, and conciseness..... My Sire - I am nowhere near your reading level, but I like that, something for me to work towards..... Ted

Action = reaction Disadvantages have advantages You may have lost some sleep (hope no serious bad things troubling you) but in turn you’ve got some great pictures.
