wind out of anyone's sails. My heartfelt appologies for any hurt feeling I may
have (unintentionally) caused.

Others have said it, but it bears repeating - the folks at LD are doing some
fabulous work. They (and Dan, of course) deserve all the credit for this set,
and for all of the other great things they are doing.

- Paul
