It's good to know there is an option, I guess I missed that on the 
website (along with the module details). <G>

Can I take your order?

I'll have a System D, hold the skin and I'd like to substitute an 
order of big ass MOTM knobs with the shiny silver inserts for the 
stock ones (so I can find them). <G>

Do you want fries or a drink with that?

No, I'm trying to quit. <G>

Good to know as well - but there's something not quite right about 
"plain'll cost ya more", if that is even an option in this case - like 
the Nicholson toast bit in "Five Easy Pieces."

As well (even though it probably doesn't seem like it), I just wish it 
were more compatible with mine (different drugs, I guess [that's a 
joke, too]). 

BTW, after looking at the Wiard patchsheets and PDFs, the funtionality 
does look both unusual and powerful. The "Wiard_hints" sheet in the 
archives is informative, as well. I hope I get to see one in person 
some day.
