Thanks, jburke. I have been approaching the mailbox with fear for the last few days...now it looks like there is a stay of execution. Yes, it may be the moving target...has been before. I am not sure if I really dislike it, my hopes have diminished. In fact they diminished after I found two flaws in my solutions immediately after the exam while re-iterating it in my head. And I am sure there were more flaws that I did not recorgnize, not considering the minor ones...Where are you waiting?
