I've held my peace long enough...this is pure and utter engineering genius at work here! I've followed this thread from early on, and all I can say is B A D A $ $!

I can't give you kudos enough on this herculean undertaking, other than to say that the day you complete this will be will be almost akin to what occured on Nov. 4, 2008...historic!
