0 bonanova Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Hi nrduren, and welcome to the Den. I took the liberty of hiding your spoiler to give responders a true shot at finding the answers on their own. One way of posing questions here is to confirm what people come up with, or not, rather than handing them an answer sheet, even one that's folded up. I'll replace it tho, if if you like. - bn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
