	Thanks duly noted to you and Kent Stewart.  I caught the
	"smmsp" factoid before upgrading other servers to 4.7 and
	4.7-PRE but it had slipped thru the seive of my memory, 
	so your tip is appreciated!

	Anyway, about to launch (and down several shots of Bourbon:).
	If thought.org disappears from the net, you'll know what 
	happened....
