  Didn't realize my post was going to cause such a stir :-)

I didn't read Terry's post as meaning he was going to create a huge gap between updates and posting them and I am sure 
that if there was a major problem he would make an update available.  His problem is that he asked the question.  My 
point was that if he simply posted an update twice a month on the same day of the month we would never have noticed and 
wouldn't have cared.  He could have met the requested need and we would not have been the wiser and I doubt we would 
have suffered for the change.  Personally I don't care either way as I am confident he will take care of us with either 
approach.
