Thank you gentlemen for the kind words.
Although morte posts (1:1000) he has disassembly/reassembly down to 1 minute! Is that a record? I'll have to practice all weekend!

I won't even try to break that record! :o I'll have to content myself with the words of that old song by the Pointer Sisters . . . the one in praise of the man with "a slow hand" and "an easy touch." ;)
