I haven't used 'em anywhere near as much as I thought I might, either, but then I haven't even fired my scope up in ages now, another thing I oughta fix pretty soon, too. :-) -- Member of the toughest, meanest, deadliest, most unrelenting -- and ablest -- form of life in this section of space, a critter that can be killed but can't be tamed. --Robert A.
