[I thought I posted this yesterday, but I guess not:]

While I wasn't being totally sarcastic, I wasn't being totally serious

indicated as such, something like :-þ . If there are those with more
serious intensions than mine, I'm glad the information was given. I
may need to use it one day, and appreciate the response.
