And besides, NOS is not a word.

Sign of the times. This site is getting pretty grown up. WAAY too many folks have been on here for way too long. The resposts only bother those people. Put up a new forum called "newby posts" and bump any reposts there. Then the old timers will look a lot less like, well, jerks!
