Hi Stewart as always thanks for your really generous comments- I added the slashes to stop or take a breath before continuing- because if I took them out- it might feel or read as being rushed, I don\'t know- I guess it\'s a preference thing when one is reading...I am most appreciative of your comments- I am always learning- so thank you!
