Thanks for the reply, micro. I am sure there are many of us out here who quietly watch and wait. And certainly check in often to see if anything is happening with our "retirement plan."

I had never thought of renting a camera..... I'll bet a person could. And I will check into it if I can't call in a favor or two and just borrow one.

And whatever your initial motivations were for jumping aboard this "iron ship," I for one, am glad you are here. Your hours of efforts are appreciated!
