thank you for the review... it's nice to see that you also care about other VJ members and took the time to list the questions.

you deserve the Congrats unlike other VJ members who only seek attention.

Best Wishes To You!

by the way.... my Grandfather lived most of his life in Lebanon.

Firstly, congratulations... richly deserved. i also agree with RobbyUSA. Thank you for the time you took to sit and give us in detail your experience at the interview. Well appreciated. unlike most people here, only a few ever return to leave us a message such as this one. Only the selfish will ask questions get all their answers and head off into the sun set. again I say thank you for remembering those you left behind. :thumbs:
