Glenn member Registered: 03/08/06 Posts: 2617 Loc: Ohio	Welcome aboard! Don't ever feel the need to apologize for lack of experience. You accuulate experience every time you go out - and going out is sort of the whole point, anyhow. I've been doing this for 35 years, recreationally, and I'm still not sure whether I've got 35 years of experience, or one year's experience 35 times.
