    i've been left to decipher the meaning all on my own. Recently IMO came to my attention...many of you use IMO quite a bit. Honestly I had know idea what the heck it meant, but i think i figured it out...if someone could fill me in if i'm wrong please...? IMO=In my opinion IMHO=In my honest/humble opinion...? Did i guess right...? Now I just figure out OMG...and i'm set.. ciao! "An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes in his or her field" - Niels Bohr

                                          I *had* one, but lost it. Just haven't had the time to do up a new one. (I've got others but they aren't in the CP flavour) You're right though. cheers, Chris Maunder
