i think it might be a good idea for you guys to post a thread informing other posters of the thread that you are about to respond to, kind of a "heads up" to alert others as to the fact that you will be responding to a particular thread.
p.s. i'm up from my nap and will be posting for the next hour or so, i'll then be in the shower, shaving and going to possibly go out for dinner and drinks. if in fact my plans differ from above i'll start a thread to alert everyone.
this has been a public service announcement.
