I was wondering about that too okarol, and Chris, why are you mooning us when we're just meeting you?  A tad odd no?  Not sure how to welcome such a strange intro.

hate to say this, but that's not the first time I've been mooned by a stranger.. and that doesn't include hospital patients. Maybe Chris just needs a little time to warm up  :)
