Thanks! There was something itching in my consciousness, but I just
couldn't figure what!

Do you have a link with any info on these? Can't seem to find even

Seriously? I thought all the talk about 'realism' was a cover for a
rules-for-babies 'tude; never thought that a vector player could have
near
as much trouble with the original as I have with the vector! ;->=

space with my favored ruleset. Definitly NOT being patronizing here!
