Hi, Christina,

I apologize, I did not mean to exclude you or your questions in my post. I do understand you are not 'criticizing', you are inquiring about certain issues of which I am also interested in the answers.

Don

 Your questions

  Adelasie,

  It realy does not touch the point I was searching for.
  also not for any weakness I am interesting for.
  Possibly others have something on your answer, but I not at all.
  How Judge thought about is also not of any importance in this 
  question.
  I did not know this would bring such a Kyen.
  Christina
