I find it ironic that as I was reading and responding to this thread, I was in the process of purchasing a somewhat pricey item from a fellow list member.

Possibly 100% as I hope everything works out for Mojo (and now my new purchase!!!!!!). DE On Thu, Oct 8, 2009 at 3:03 PM, Z <xodus48...@yahoo.com> wrote: > I am very sorry for you.
