Sorry Badger, I didn't contribute this year. Toughest year to date. Like you, age is catching up with me. Forced retirement in January, wife had emergency bowel surgery in March, liver transplant in April, rejection in August, wife's reconstructive bowel surgery in October. Getting old sucks!
Now that I have finished whining I can contribute a small amount to this most worthy site.
