Read the entire thread for your answer. The archives are really a great resource for this kind of question.
Thank you for the info guys...I think for now I'll hang it on the wall until it's needed. I appreciate the help
Thank you sir

I appreciate you making me look good bro. Thanks
The archives and this whole website has so much info, we need a glossary for a glossary here! it is a bit overwhelming at first (for me, a newb) but I am very thankful that is the case. I'm afraid to ask a question unless I search and search because it seems like most stuff is here, you've just got to dig for it sometimes.
