deemax - my deepest condolences on the passing of your father. Most importantly, it sounds like he was a great husband, father, and grandfather as well as a great friend to those who knew him.
I read everything he posted and still have dozens of pages printed out of his posts over the years. It always amazed me that he and a few others of the true professionals in the game took time to post here and help people.
bbscout will be missed and again so sorry for your loss.
