<HTML>Hi Ying,
Your command of the English language is second to none and never ceases to amaze me :-)
Best wishes

PS reminds me of a tale. Sometime after the last war ended. British and American fleets were in the Med and some ships were in port in Valletta. Well a US warship ship ties up alongside a British destroyer and has the words \"Second to None\" showing. When they awoke in the morning the Royal Navy ship alongside had the words \"H.M.S. NONE\" desplayed promenently.
Sorry to all our American friends no disrespect meant but I understand it to have been true.</HTML>
