Hi, Lon -  I'm not sure if you got my joke or not - I was poking fun (good
natured fun) at the way you spelled Syncro.  The cardinal rule here on V@L is
you must know how to spell the following:
Volkswagen (with an "e", not a "o".)
Syncro (there's no "h" in Syncro)
Westfalia (there's no "ph" in Westfalia)

other than that, anything goes..... just ask David Raistrick, winner of the
V@L spelling bee......  :<)

sorry david!!!  :<)
