Nolan (raven!san) for courageously acknowledging his hopeless inadequacy and sharing his story with the readers of this newsgroup. Like so many others I also suffer from the same sinister affliction and my battle to overcome it is remarkably similar to Mr. Noble's. However, in my case the catalyst for my catharsis was not abuse from a common trollop but the inspiring presence of an umbrella. Now, like most men I know, I am always careful to pack an umbrella with my shaving kit when opportunity knocks (if you catch my drift). So, thanks Sam - your story spoke to many of us in ways that you probably never imagined. Keep up the good work! *<--- chuck --->* cbosgd!ccf BTL Columbus
