Mike, considering we are on a modeling site, I think that was an honest mistake and frankly before reading through the thread I would have responded in the same way. Perhaps it would be a better idea to respond by saying "thanks for your help but I mean this definition of the word Primer, not that..." and not just posting the definition?

Otherwise we could find ourselves mired in a thread arguing about all of the various definitions of the word, no?
