Well... I'll give you that....

It should be reasoned that if they do post here...

BUT... on more than one occasion... I have seen even VERY good troubleshooters troubleshoot RIGHT past the simple fixes and assume the more complex ones... and I admit... even *I* have done that.... ----hush-hush---- shhhh.... don't let that out...

So, it always does help to at least "mention" the easy fixes... as we all know those "Dam, I coulda had a V8" moments happen.

Happens to hubs too. - (Andrew Grygus) - Aug. 6, 2002, 03:01:00 PM EDT
