Thank you so much Radboud! and I appreciate your confirmation on the marking as well as always for your sincere courtesy in responding to my post. I thought my analysis after finding what I thought would be helpful after some time researching would at least perpetuate other examples or some sort of onward discussion. If Phil is still around.....I was hoping I had not framed my wording in some manner that would have been unintentionally offensive. Things seem to get pretty touchy these days.
Very best regards,
Jim
