I've got it.... Bundle it up & take it along on a trip to the the Caribbean. You'll find that most ex-British colonies will still be 50hz. Also a few others, such as Curacao. Note that due to {flip, flip, flip, hmm...} bad water, you'll need to take it easy there & only work an hour or two a day. While recuperating, note that Curacao is the home to a Amstel brewery (they have to distill all the water for it...) and has many beaches with visiting Dutch women so economically challenged that they can't always afford swimsuits. Good luck, and I hope you have a successful test. -- A host is a host from coast to coast.................wb8foz@nrk.com & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433
