I hope your opinion proves to be correct Barry. <BR>
As you point out elsewhere I'm asking only from the users viewpoint.<BR>
Approaching jnos from users perspective is my mantra - pandering to "stupid" users is not.<BR>
But "lots" of users are not here at the moment.<BR>
I don't advocate changing code so much as I wonder how to explain the difference.

Yes - I recognize the accuracy of Jays response.<BR>
One irony I have is that Jay and I are joined at the hip in wanting clarity for semi-tech users.<BR>
He has pulled yeoman duty with MI-DRG and I hope he can use my wiki to further his cause.

You know, your answer skirts another topic - SSID utilization as seen in the JHEARD list.<BR>
Let's *not* do this now, but muse at the difficulty of using JHEARD information for connect purposes.

Maybe no, maybe yes at some point.<BR>
In the mean time I believe I have my answer to go forward with.
