Thanks, everyone, for responding to my inquiry. I appreciate the safety warnings (always important) and the specific product recommendation. And thank you JEFFPO for your specific fact-based statement.

I have always regarded a forum as an opportunity to inquire, to learn, and to benefit from the information and feed-back presented. It's often - as in my case - an opportunity for someone new to an interest or situation to add-to understanding and enjoyment of that interest or situation. This was my second post to the OGR On-Line Forum, and the replies to the first were so specific and helpful that I printed them to save in my files on the subject. Now, at the risk of being banned from the site, I need to state that many of the replies to this inquiry were somewhat less-than-polite wise-cracks and made me feel like a total fool for asking a simple and nagging question. The sustainability of this hobby - like most others - depends on a steady flow of new enthusiasts ready to fill and swell the ranks. And unless the treatment of those new individuals is polite and information-based the hobby and the industry are sure to be short-lived.

Thanks for the opportunity to express my opinion, and I've learned from the experience.

(That's why there are forums).  

Ray, Please do not let some of the posts “get to you”.  Just sort out the good and usable from the trash comments.  Your topic is one that has been threshed out before on the forum, BUT you are new, had a valid question, and “old hands” should have understood as they were once ”newbies”.  Overall, you will gain substantially from following and being a part of this forum and hobby.  Like the world, in general, – some of these guys speak from their heads and some from their rectums.  Hang in their buddy.
