Hi, David:

	  ....................


	  I've been in the military, and I've learned to ignore the tone and 
look for the value in comments I receive. I've learned a lot from 
........., and others. When the tone seemed less supportive or 
even insulting, I'm very glad the person took the time to comment and 
didn't decide not to reply for fear of offending me. I'm more productive 
and a better human for all the help I've gotten from this and other 
R-related lists.
