WoHoo!!! Yeah, AlRight... Cool Man... I can't wait to test drive...
(Actually, Ge, thanks for sending me that "prerelease" version, I was
able to test those things that I needed for the Fractal stuff I am
working on.... Now, I guess this means, I actually have to post my
stuff now...)
WooHOO!!! Yeah!!
Thanks to everyone who has worked on this fantastic piece of software!
