That was really great, exactly the kind of looping I'm looking to
explore when I finally get the software configured (I sold all this
gear of mine to force a move to software and wound up buying more
hardware with the cash instead, Doh! How does that happen?). But
this is inspiring me back to software.
Thanks,
Kevin

Till now you seriously considered yourself to be the body and to have a
form. That is the primal ignorance which is the root cause of all trouble.
