Excellent – thanks! Brilliantly done.

BTW, when I was in the Dutch West Indies way back in the 80’s, I believe I heard the island of Curaçao’s name pronounced as cur-ah-SOW, not cur-ah-KOH;

  Wonderful. I know only one Dutch family. The de Wits, who married a friend from high school, Kathleen Sullivan de Wit. I now anow twice as much as I knew before about the Hollands, the Netherlands and the Kingdom and the Caribbean. Lovely.
