3. Sure, though didn't realize it was a dupe. The mod took care of that.
It's all good, though.

4. I'm not a mod. It just bugs me when folks start new threads without
even taking a quick look around to see if there's already a thread on what they're posting about.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

(snip)

In common usage, "signal-to-noise ratio" describes the ratio of useful information to false or irrelevant information, for example in an online discussion forum.

The term has been used e.g. on Usenet, where off-topic posts and spam are regarded as "noise" that interferes with the "signal" of interesting discussion.

Many Internet users prefer moderated forums, for instance, because moderation can improve the SNR of a forum.

5. I was heading out the door and turned right around!
What ever would I do without DU??? My life would be a barren wasteland. Instead, I'm laughing my head off. Thanks!
