Ms. Teahon
I truly appreciate your posts and I hope you will continue to be a major contributor to this forum. I'm sure some of the comments, not to mention avatars can be quite off-putting to you. Many years ago I received a degree in Engineering (okay it was "civil" engineering but the degree at least indicates a reasonable level of intelligence... I can tie my shoes with a square knot rather than a granny knot) and then through a series of events became an artist, a sculptor in fact and spent 25 years as a professor at an art and design university. I am still a practicing sculptor and have had my share of fairly large commissions. Still, you can see that I'm about as far from the financial world as one can get. As a result I appreciate if not rely on the opinion of individuals like yourself. Your background speaks for itself.
I wish I hadn't picked such a dorky username, but well, there it is.
Keep up the great posts and try to ignor the sexism that seems to creep into the forum from time to time.
With great respect
Sir (groan) HaL
