Wow, Thank you all for the warm welcome! I’ll try to chat individually to each of you, when I have the time.opalescent, in regards to my monniker, I have always been amazed with 9, as no mater how far you multiply it, if you break it down numerologically, you end up with 9, every time! No other digit does that…The mantis goes back to the time when I was heavy into martial arts- being thin, patient, & fast as lightning, that was my nickname…I will try to be a productive member of this site, as I like it very much, Blessings, NightLighter
