Thanks for the response rickn. I think if we keep checking in every so often maybe later today', tomorrow we will see some progress and compare notes. There does seem to be Activity on a couple of the sites so , at the moment, it does give me a feeling we are not being left "high and dry". But as we all know, we have been thru this before. What helps me though is that Rick Strom is probably on this and I always felt he was one that was very competent. They must have adopted a "mum's the word" attitude and therefore no pre announcements. After all, from what we all have already been through, at this point, What else have we got to lose. Tlsmd
