OK Barb, no offense taken. And my sympathies for your family situation.

As I said, I am not religious, but like to think I am tolerant of  
those who are since that is what helps them carry through life and  
it's often better than drugs or alcohol.

To me, in this instance, 'pray' just meant, 'I hope I hope I hope!'

And all is well with my computer at least. :-)
