    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    Great minds think alike. Perhaps the darkness conjured up a bit of Shaker in you.

    At the end of Chris Schwartz's book on workbenches (perhaps you are still indifferent towards him) he has a small chapter titled "Invent Nothing". In regards to workbenches he means. 99.99% of all the important stuff has been done before. perhaps he was right afterall

    Cheers

    I wouldn't say i'm totally indifferent to CS. I'm convinced many people have identical and simultaneous thought processes.

    SWMBO and I do all the time. Usually it is o-Oh, I better do that from me and why haven't you done that yet? from hers truly..

    And a throw away remark on the bench to keep it on topic. It's everything and more that I could have wanted...(just to keep happy )

    Cheers
