Subj: REPLY TO MSG #6156 (LIBRARY UPDATE)

Thanks Ron, I will indeed make the change.

It is unfortunate that Robert Benson is no longer with us.  He did fantastic
work for us all.  I must confess that I am at fault for his not being here.
You see, Robert is a "tightly focused" individual on public assistance.  He can
handle only one thing at a time and that goes slowly.  His detail level is
excellent but it does take him a long time to accomplish anything ... but he
does accomplish.  He was also interested in only a limited nature of
programming ... which used to bug me to no end.  I'm a production guy, i.e. the
more I can get done in a moment in time the better I like it.

When I ventured onto other things (i.e. hot rod building ... back again in my
old age ... and Port Chicago's Loading Dock) Robert couldn't understand.  I
must admit, it was hard to relate to him how important it is to me to have
broad interests and be able to pay the bills ... no public handout for his
dude.  Anyway, he ust stopped coming online one day and simply faded away into
the sunset.  His father had recently died about the same time so he was really
feeling missplaced.  I think he needed a change as well.

Anyway, I caught your update request and will hop-to!  And thanks!  -Rick-
