All those in favor say, ' i ' mods, can we get this thread sticky? we could call it the Bright_Spark chat facility :lol:

i'm quite supprised it doesnt tell you somewhere. if all else fails, do they have a technical dept that you could contact to find out? a lot of faffing about on the phone granted, but i find that things make much more sense when you understand the thoery behind the 'why does it have...?' quesions.
