Comment: "Dusty Tony with the woolly hat, I am choosing your entry because I will now go back to all the gazillion 'stops' in my text and pick and choose... and I suppose in some I will leave 'stop' but with something else. I had used corner beads and metal trim, but had no idea what to do with the stop part (my ex had a construction company which I helped run for many years, as counsel, that is why I have some familiarity with construction terminology... and my third son is a full carpenter, although in college studying music and computer science...) Anyway, as always, I am profoundly grateful, and wish you the best of 2007. I will be celebrating the eve of 2007 with judiciously prepared mimosas, with my favorite Veuve Cliquot; although it is perhaps a waste of the good Veuve, I am now in the throes of what may be flu... so the orange juice should help. Only 8 pages to go on this translation! "
