wow, Gene, that is a bummer, sincerely sorry to hear about that episode... i was just a wee tiny lad when you (cough) more experienced folks were using tin cans & string... ;-> did 11/23 meant it was 23 months off the engineering board? i dont recall ever having an issue with DEC stuff yet maybe that was because they had pocket burns up to the elbow on their arms ? - rh
