    Greg Schmelzer What are you looking at?!

    This is sad...

    Growing up, my mother and grandma spoke German all the time. How much do I speak? None, unless somebody sneezes. Still kinda kick my own:moonu: for not learning it when I had the chance.

    Grandma never spoke English until she went to school and mom spoke both growing up. Talk about a missed opportunity.:Dou:

    Are you telling us that is the answer, or are you getting the big head Phil so graciously avoided accusing you of? LOL :)

    Whoops. I should have just looked at a pic of his car....

    Yes, just telling you the answer. Forget the first E and you've got it.


    No ego problems here, I am fully aware of every mistake I make (and end up paying for). Lots of times I have more questions than answers. The only reason I know some of this stuff is that I work on it every day.
