Point taken, but I just wanted to see not so much if it was allowed as
perhaps disallowed. I was seeing if this list would respond with
something like what you said the people on the New York list said.

I don't have any new ones to ask about right now but I'm glad that I
can do this, since I have no real "mentor" type people at work.  

I'm trapped in an NT world here (Naval Hospital Jacksonville) for
another few weeks until I transfer back into civilian life (in CA)
again. Boy I'll be glad to leave it behind. I'll certainly stay on this
list, though, since so far now I've come into contact with about 5
different Perl hackers that actually typed out multi-page emails to
help me out :)

Thanks guys,
