One more thing, if there's a catch in the question, could you please
rephrase it? The follow-up question in itself is rather badly worded, for
instance if you are *actually* talking about a discontinued line that's no
longer available, it's certainly not apparent just from reading it!
Cheers ...

| Pick one of those I mentioned in my original reply. If those get eliminated - in fact, since you didn't say whether any were correct, I'd say they could all be elimination candidates. <gdr> Cheers ... Geoffrey Hyde Whytcross, Benjamin (...)
