gdc, <br /> Yes Sir, you are correct. Now that I think about it, I was getting Public Relations confused with Advertising. I wish you would have told me this yesterday. I wasted 2 hours at the Library reading up on advertising when I should have been reading about Public Relations. Yes, you are correct again. They need to be handled differently. <br /> But not to let the trip to the library be a total waste. I found some interesting facts while there on the skewed data over quality. The Librarian called the Chysler Neon plant in Belvidear Illinios. She spoke to a Mr. Rundard who works in Quality control. (Some library's offer this service for free.) He said shipping Neons by rail results in a 3% damaged in transit rate. While shipping by truck results in a 16% damaged in transit rate. I'm still trying to get the Intermudol figure's. Trucking and railroads are kind of secretive about there damage rates. Those figure's are out there you just have to know were to look. <br /> TIM A
