:) It's a joke, you sill^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^HDavid! ;) Teoh started it. Remember the old control H in I think it was UNIX? The number of ^Hs equal the number of characters he's backed up over to "erase" the original wording. "Attention Deficit" rather than "Immune Deficiency." After laughing uproariously, I had to copy him, of course. :) Sorry, it was funnier unexplained! Sara^H^Hlly
