Vader, if you'd like to talk, please feel absolutely free to send me a PM. I can't promise that I can be of much help, but I can at least be someone to listen.
Onecoldday, I apologize no one has answered your thread.

Activity around here has declined a little in response to the holidays, at least in my observations. It usually does fluctuate a bit around the "big" ones. If you'd like, you can link me to your topic. I cannot promise I can help, but I'll be happy to offer what I can. I only request a little time. I'm signing off shortly (work tomorrow), so it may be tomorrow evening (EST's version of evening, anyway) before I have a response.
