Well, if D.J.J. Ring told you that, you can rely completely on practically 
anything he tells you. I
have known him since shortly after there was hair, and sometime after there was 
dirt. He is a
very good fellow very knowledgeable and very reliable. He is also a veteran, 
which, in my
opinion, gives him more credence, yet.

Well then, COM3 it must be.

As long as you got it working, I would guess there is no more need for my 
comments. Carry
on.
