hi bruce, i didnt misunderstand your post..i was just being my typical
sarcastic self :<) i should have just fwd his kind response to my inquiry to the
folks at epay, and the ad would have been yanked, im sure. and would have prolly
saved some bandwith here on the list.. but i guess a part of me finds it
kind of nice to know that he has gotten prolly 30+ "ask the seller" questions
telling him he is selling something that is not what he is advertising it as :<)
