Need I explain why >actually doing such research is useful? I've failed again, I'm afraid. I wasn't being sarcastic; I have no idea how this is done, and since I teach physics, I think that is a lacuna in my knowledge which needs to be filled. I asked some specific questions about generation and distribution, and I'd really like to know the answers to those questions. I've only recently adopted the "smiley" (my version has a double chin) because I was being misunderstood. I am quite vain about my command of the language, and I had never seen a smiley in Mark Twain, so I didn't use them, either. Now I see that it can work the other way as well. Leigh
