Welcome to the board, hope you enjoy yourself here in our little corner of cyberspace. Your best bet is to lurk around for a bit, read some posts, find out what we’re about. We have a rudimentary FAQ going on (overdue for an upgrade and happening soon, my hand to Jesus), click on “FAQ” in the upper right hand corner of any SDMB page. And ask up, the only dumb question is the one not inquired. your humble TubaDiva Administrator ---
