Thank you for the kind words and encouragement. I am certain that there's plenty of very smart people in this forum and also quite certain that I can and will learn a lot here. I'll admit that I have a strange personality. I think too many people took my comments the wrong way. I guess when you...

These things are popping up in my new setup anyone know what it is?
