My point was made in reference to the attitude of "whatever works is OK" that I increasingly see on this list, not to any specific repair. I am, in essence, starting a new "thread", and not replying to any specific repair. <<Never would have guessed! ... (that the reply was sarcastic!)>> Believe it or not, I have found it necessary to include such a warning in the rare cases I do say something tongue in cheek. Some people, seriously, take it literally! No doubt they are too hurried, or skip read, or such, and I understand how that can happen. I did not want my stance on these specific repairs to be misunderstood See - no flame suit necessary! Bill Simon Phoenix p.s. - <<The best things in life aren't things.>> Nice thought.
