And where can I find one of those critters, my dear lady?  Humm, maybe in 
the repo's, I found two kits that weren't even installed, one was 
labeled as being an opaque kit for right handed rodents.  And updated 30 
some tde packages on both this machine, and the dell running the mill.  
I just did that 2 hours ago.  So we'll see when I get to that machine 
and do a logout, login.

Thanks for the nudge in the ribs, I thought it was all installed. Duh..

Cheers, Gene Heskett
