Thanks admetalman, for the compliment, after being called a blind man in a derogatory way on someone else's post, I had to avenge myself.
I just got up. I see C.W. has been busy last night, pulling my comments. Eye, eye thought you knew something about TREES. Metalman, that would be one BIG tire! (next time ill put something identifiable beside the object to give it scale). The man who walks softly is the WINNER. Amber was close, she had the "tapping" part right. Last night i posted the winner, but i made the mistake of putting my e-mail add. on the comm. (for both of you) to send me your info. Went to eye's home page, could'nt find his. ANYWAY, you all did pretty good, next time, HARDER.
thank you Sean
