A very nice ending, or beginning. Who knew that the hotel could load this itself in real time? Nice that they could do it. Nice that they were positive. Nice that they would do it. Nice that there wasn't a language problem. And the tip here is one of the best, maybe the most useful, I've seen in a long time. Thank you, dd1612.
