I won't move unless ALL my trainmen are in the clear and I certainly won't let one release protection for another. We all need to look out for one another. That is what safety is about. There are plenty of canrky "old timers" out there, you need to choose when to stand up to them. You did fine from the sound of things. <br /> <br />LC
