- Sorry to bother you all with my problem, but it seems it has been
- corrrected with some help from Karl S... (sorry) from Harvard (Thanks!) It was
- a problem in downloading; I needed to use the 'image' format which I did not
- even know about.

- Thanks to all who helped and replied; I can not thank you enough and
- appreciate the time you all took to respond.
