dooney thanks for your response too. This is also something that I have given a lot of thought over the past two years and even longer.

I will have to keep you in suspense though after that long volume above i think i should probably only bare my soul (or a tiny part of it at least) once per insomniac session.

Seriosuly I think I should try again to get some sleep tonight. As I said elsewhere the doc has changed my meds so hopefully in a few days I'll be sleeping better. That doens't mean I won't be subjecting everyone to my novel-length posts though, it's a bad habit I've had on other message boards too.
