Funny, that Nite Light look from the back going into the club turn is really what made me think of you and your earlier post. I hate this. The others you could mention, really never came back. And I did worry when Gomez came over that he would hurry too much, and we all are older, not just me. For someone that really thinks "I want the Money" every time I turn on the TV or open a form, or download a fig, this sucks, and it ain't about the money. You make your point.
