greetngs to all,

Bro. Jerry, in no way did I consider "an attack on me" or anyone, we be brethern.

These were some commits that I have received. Not seeing the movie**, I was wanting to know how accurate before I made commits to others.

Thanks

Jeff

**I don't go to movies, but now I might backslide and go see "The Alamo".  B-)
