Cool. Thanks for the link.
A bit off topic, but it's a funny thing how very occasionally the name of a product
doesn't work at all in another country.
Flickr is a good example. Overhere in the Netherlands the word 'Flikker'
is one of the worst things to call a gay man. The insult is close in severity
to the N-word for Afro-American people. The Dutch version is prenounced exactly
the same as Flickr and on top of that, the word is used in curses such as 'Flikker op'
which translates closely to 'F**k off'.
I personally don't know a single Dutch person who stores their photos there.
People either think the website's name is insulting or they probably believe
they'll turn gay when using it or something .

Beautiful!! It makes you wish for a two way portal to be able to step back to those times.
In some Quarries they had equipment to pick up and slide the rails over without sectioning them.
Anyone know if you can post your pictures on that site?

I'm correct 97% of the time..... who cares about the other 4%....
