hmm, thru guessing would you try .18 for silver or .47 for gold? Not that I’m against tweeking but the true ior’s are definately a good place to start.

that’s true, but then we all know that in the end each one of us does what ever it takes to make it look good/right…hehehe :wink:

IMO, if all you needed to make it look right was to type in a number from a list…then it would take out all the fun out of experinmenting…at that point you could have you secretary or accountant do it for ya… :stuck_out_tongue:
