Rick,
I'll start here with my apology. I am sorry for the way I phrased my response to you this morning, but for some reason I got all fired up over Rick Silva's post and my tone not only carried into your questions, it got worse. As I said, I have had a stressful morning, although that's no excuse for my tone, it is the reason. The very last thing I would ever want to do would be to irritate anyone on this board. Reading and responding here has become a big part of my life and I would hate to have anyone on this board think of me as an ASS. I am actually a fairly quiet person, and rarely lose my temper, but today my fingers went nuts on the keyboard. I'm sorry for that. If there was any way I could start the day over, trust me, I would.

I honestly believed, for some reason, that you were basically asking the same type of question as the Rick Silva post, which in my mind at that time had no correct answer, and any answer given would more than likely sway the individual into building something less than unique. After the discussion with Shawn Baker, I changed my mind, and thought (now) that it makes sense to throw out a bunch of ideas (personal likes/dislikes)and have the person pick or choose what he/she likes/dislikes and hopefully, at the very least, spur on some new ideas.

That's all I have to say, except that I am really sorry for the misunderstanding, and that from now on I'll read my own text before I post and not type anything when I'm having this kind of day.
