Feh on all this mushy stuff! **Anthracite** , I wish you the happiest of birthdays. You are a fearsome warrior in the fight against ignorance and a hero. We are lucky to have you on our side. Keep fighting ignorance wherever you go, and thank you on behalf of all of us who hope someday to see it eradicated. Thanks again, happy birthday, and enjoy all that mushy stuff! All the best. -manhattan ---
