Mudlark,
Didn't mean to be less than forthcoming about my international sands,just got in a hurry trying to get the package out so you'd get it by Christmas. Somewhere in the recesses of my memory I have an "old Chinese proverb" that says, "To catch a tiger, one must enlist the aid of his brothers," or words to that effect.

I have a brother living in Bangkok, another living in Jerusalem, and a sister living in Singapore, so I made the occasion a family affair.
The better to keep you guessing, my dear.

Nathan
