Hey Nancy!

 NB> you never know when one will be helpful down the line

Agreed, except often one can know when and come up with a plan chock full o' 
helpfulness.  That is my current perspective with respect to this particular 
brush with a learning experience.

 NB> Sometimes that's the only way things get accomplished...  :)

Sometimes?  Not that I have been keeping track, but my hunch is that in my case 
it is probably much higher than a simple majority of attempts at accompilshing 
things, and perhaps always in the case of accompishments.  I might even be 
tempted to conclude that if it weren't for blind stubborness I probably would 
have never accomplished anything.

Life is good,
Maurice
