hi

i think it is as good as i have seen.

these are some of the elements that really set it off.  none are 'tricky'
but just not often done.  first things line up.  second the test is just
right, not large not small.  i was not choked by the amount of data.  you
gave me what i needed to make a dec ision.  not running round trying to
convice me you read a book.

the site is work to be proud of.

thanks

ed
