Hi Milt, 

No problem here, but it actually gets even more bizarre.  I actually misread 
your question.  I thought that you asked "what was an Orange certificate", to 
which I said to myself, "how can anyone not know what a certificate is?"

I guess that's why I gave such a simplistic answer.  To further exacerbate the 
situation, Ron wanted to know if they would be "peel off", but I did not 
realize that did not come from you, and I sent back an even more simplistic 
answer.  Oh my, how lame on my part, especially since you only wanted to know 
if the certificate color was going to be orange!  And that, I don't know!  
Maybe they'll be made out of orange peels, ergo the reason for "peel off"!

I'd better stop while I'm ahead...if I am.

73, Geo
