John, I am surprised by your comments and failure to read between the lines.
When I post as JT, I need to tread a fine line ... too much reading betwixt the lines can get a mod into hot water without too much effort.
Enjoying the thread, I am .... and there is a value to be had for the newchums in these sorts of robust discussions.
As a side comment, I always enjoyed my Chieftain time .. not quite so keen on the little one, though.
