@Patrick... thanks. This is one big fallout of SO... people like me are becoming lazy. In the old days, I would have Googled harder for this (I did a quick Google search, but gave up after checking a couple of results and ran here).

In truth, I remembered reading that post sometime ago and just went to the blog to find the link. This sort of recall's the sort of thing that Google just can't give you.
