No problem.  I can deal with it as long as you are aware of the issue.

It seems to work now.  Thanks.

I try not to COMPLAIN about anything. :-)  Seriously, though - I do realize
how much time and energy are put into this project by the few core people
and though I will report issues I see or ask questions, I will never
complain about what is or is not done.  You guys do too much work to deserve
that.  One of these days, I will make enough time to make some contributions
of my own - and then I MIGHT have a right to complain a little.  You guys
have done a wonderful job, and as many have said before, we appreciate your
work.  Thank you.
