Again, thanks!!!!!  I was glad the idea worked.  I wanted to give a
combination of hard stats and a feel for what happend while watching the
game.  First try, and I'm being compared favorably with the Master!  :>)

Personally, I have no problem with you (or anyone else) reposting my
reviews if you want to.  In the case of this one, I have one
request...please clean up my typos?  Normally, I do that myself, but my
machine was wacky, and none of the corrections took when I sent it out.
I've since fixed the problem.  

It was hard work, but I had a great time!  (and I loooove my satellite....)

poof...
