Hello Chris,

Thanks for the info... because of my work schedule making it  
functionally very difficult to attend traditional classes, the  
courses I have taken to date have been online.  Definitely  
interesting to balance with a full-time job, family and other  
activities, but sometimes the only option.  I'll look into those  
courses and see if I can persuade the local school to perhaps accept  
them as elective credits ;)

Thanks,

Monte
