Thanks for the information Lee, but this is not a real clinic.  Dr Tim who 
hired us, is really our teacher.  The web site does point out some good 
information I have not seen before.  May be I use it in our presentation, to 
help us get a better grade.  Will see.

Thanks for all the great information.  It helps.  If there is anymore, 
please pass it along.


Regards,
Darren
