Welcome to the project, and happy crunching. You may also like to have a look at our other board, here. There\'s a lot of discussion on many subjects. You can just read, or join in and post. Because it\'s totally separate from both the Oxford and the BBC \'crunchers\' help and discussion boards, you need to sign up again to post. ID: 23704 · Reply Quote
