Hmm - I was wondering about this too, but I stayed quiet to save face. ;-) I must have missed the original post. Anyways, I'm gonna give this a go. Ajuk would be L2 G4 T1 C4, for 11/20. Urk. Adding your additions, Jörg, I'd be L2 G4 T1 C4 P5 S0, or 16/30. Just as incomplete, but more than half done. At least I can rejoice in that. -- Robert
