Oh wow, hitting the 'nail on the head' so to speak, Gershon. Being a great grand parent, i'm so distant, but hear what is going on, a whole lefty wave is trying to take over. Interesting poetry is this, the subject matter could create so many different opinions. I know i've left my own here. Harry

Always glad to 'hit the nail on the head,' Harry. Sure saves wear and tear on the tips of my fingers...
