ah. i see now. and thanks for at least calling me intelligent enough to keep up with this conversation(barely). I do normally consider myself fairly intelligent, but since my son has been born, my life has been more hectic than ever. (my daughter is 2, and my son is 3 months, and my wife and I are 22...hehe) I don't, unfortunatly, have the time, nor luxury of viewing the universe as it is, and as such, my "universe" is localized. everything I need is in the room next to me, and I couldn't ask for much more(maybe faster render times in Bryce, but, hey...we can't have everything we want)
