God I have always wanted to use "Balderdash". Joe we have been friends since Moby Dick was a Minnow, so don't feel bad about any thing.
To all of you I will give a Virtual Navy a shot, I have never played on line, so I don't know anything about it. Sonar and i was going to play way back but my connection was slow, about snail speed. I have Satellite now so I assume it would be fast enough.
If the fix comes out "the battle pack" that should address the flashing I would love to play 688i or SC on line, I still don't consider my self good enough at DW, well fair on subs, but FFG, and the planes, I suck.
Thanks all of you, now this is the kind of stuff I like to read and respond to on this site.
