    Hi Everybody,

    Ben

      Hey fenulagg, you should be able to see a reply from me directly through your email account. Can you reply to me from there?

        Sure. I thought the fact that the ticket was closed might supersede those instructions, but I will follow them this weekend and send you the results.
