    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Rich, my heart goes out to you and your family. I've had a few close people pass recently (grandma and sister-inlaw) so I know what you are going through. God bless and draw strength from your family and others close to you.
