I'm afraid the only time I could make on either day would be after about 5PM Honolulu time on Saturday, which would be from about 7PM to 10PM for most of the rest of you and around 5AM for Slakko, if I have my time zones right. > 'I want you to accompany me on the safari.' 'I've never played one in my life!' Very funny, Veal Fan. But that almost wrapped onto two lines in my mail program. Shame. - -rico Very funny, Scotty.

I think, however, that Goldenmean works then. In any case, I wouldn't be on at all till about 11:30 my time, 1:30 Pacific, (isn't it 2:30 Rocky Mtn and then 3:30 Central? Or am I on crank again?) and 9:30 your time. - -rico Very funny, Scotty.
