cautioning the poster against doing any of what others have suggested
without one of them "in writting" CYA statements of blessing that you
"have the right to proceed", folks must be sped-reddin these cause it's

pushing someone with less experience into doing something dumb...

We'd all look out for one another much more then might be percieved
here...right?

Thanks,
