I was/am willing to do this, but at a price that Terry is intimately familiar with, yet he has refused to pay. IMHO, until he is willing to educate me to a certain amount, then I'm unwilling to commit his code. He claimed to be willing, but when things started hitting the fan (rubber meets the road, push came to shove) nothing of any consequence happened. This was almost 5 months ago.
