              Reading the first paragraph, I have a very very known Feeling. Give me time to read the remaining... I usually need translator for something like that and to be sure that I understand it in the right way (mas o menos) I need more than one translator :-D

                                          It there an undo button you see? Because, I'd like to read the original post, not just extracts posted by others. Must be certainly worth reading, given the great comments it has generated.
