Ahhh, yes, now I understand. It wasn't exactly a win-win scenario, but it did solve the second problem. Thanks, David.

I see that others have figured out how to send their replies to you which makes me feel even dumber than I thought I was. I did find one opportunity to send you a reply post about a week ago, but that's it--once. For now, I'll just have to piggyback on your responses to other's replies. ;-() duhhh. Anyway, I had the same experience once only I was on a bicycle! The woman in the truck actually stopped to let me go in front of her, waving me on insistently. Just as I was about to push off, a speeding car passed the truck in the adjacent lane. I would have been flattened like a pancake... the truck drive meant well but, as they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Great story! I'll have to write a story about all my adventures and misadventures and the good from the bad! But my memory isn't as good as it once was!
