many thanks Bill.
doesn't make any difference that i'm a colombian who has lived in colombia all his life and is aware of the risks? besides i've have been unemployed for quite a long time now, so i might help somehow, although i'm not an expert in science or development. anyways, thank you again for your polite reply.
regards.
