For the most part, agree. I don't bother with the lazy-sounding questions, but there are some sm
very reasonable questions posted on this board. No, I don't go to MTChat. Why don't you just hang out there, and those of us who remember what it was like to be new at this can help our novice counterparts on this board.

I can't find anything on it on the internet, so I thought I'd post it on here to see if such a term exists. More than likely, the doc is saying 10 profiles, which I suppose would make sense in reference to a CT scan.

Don't worry about it, have had many days like that, and I have been doing this 30+ years. Yesterday I could not get anything right. Happens to us all, and it does make sense later. I have looked at a lot of these word-help emails, and there are several that I had no clue on but always good to learn new things even at my old age.

I'm sorry ahead of time. Yesterday was awful and today only seems worse :( This is probably so obvious but because I am getting anxious, I can not hear anything now!

I may hear and get my feelings hurt. LOL
