LOL! My only excuse for spelling it "toumor" is the arthritis AND tendinitis in my hands necessitating taping fingers together. I see my hand doc this week (I could quote the number of hours till I can see him, but then you'd know I'm counting the hours).

Glad to see you back! I won't burn incense, but will raise a glass to your computer's continued health.
