Heh... THAT, my friend, has yet to be seen both on the regressive plans and the index recommendations. 😉

I think my 1st comment was, "Sounds fantastic! ...<something about DTA making equally glorious promise... laughing a little>... What will we need to do to turn it off?"
Too funny! After I read Wayne's good article, the first thing that came to mind was "How do I turn it off"? 😉
It's been said before but It's worth saying again... Great minds really do think alike!
