It doesn't cause me to panic either. If it breaks in a few years, I'll get her another one. If it breaks in a few months, I'll scratch it off my list forever. It's already paid for, so there's nothing to be done in any event. Thanks for the info.

Quite clearly, I must be cursed. - (Meerkat) - (7) - Dec. 18, 2005, 10:09:57 PM EST
