Yeah David, that's what I was thinking too. But seeing how I seem to "stir the pot" so often, and then get chastised...I thought I would tone this down a bit. I will say that I'm being asked to pay these fees by some pretty major comp anies that market equipment in our industry. While I won't name them openly on this list, I will share off-line who they are if anybody asks me... See? I'm exercising some pretty good self-control...hehehe -Steve Gregory- > Steve, I believe the word you're looking for is "Blackmail"!! > > David A.
