I started my post after reading the #2 post by FocusNexus with the "certificate", at about 3:30 WITHOUT reading any of the posts below it, cuz I had been thinking about it for a few days, and finally thought I should "try" to "compose it".

With my wife's help, it took me until the time of my post to compile it and post it, durring a SEVERE thunderstorm we were having from about 3:45 until about 5:30, which killed ALL the power in the house less than 15 seconds after I posted.

When I "rebooted" after the power came back on, I started at the top of the thread, where I had left off before my "hasty" post, and found out there were a TON of Freepers who had already mentioned what it took me an hour and ten minutes to "create". The Ultra Sonic #18 post, Sand Rat's #12 post, were just the First of MANY others who pretty much made my effort pretty redundant.

Oh well, I DID learn a few new Photoshop, and Power Point "tricks" from my wife!!!

My apologies for duplicating something already pretty much hashed over by my fellow FReepers!!

You do not need to apologize. Just put it down to “GMTA” (Great minds think alike). Several people cam to the same conclusion after looking at it more closely.

Also, sometimes people who read a thread with a lot of posts may miss a few and this was important information, that if they didn’t catch from some posts, they catch from others.

I hope your thunderstorm is over — I can see your power must be back on, since you are posting again and keep it up. :)
