We were all new to posting to the forums at one time! A tip about the wording in your posts~ when you posted SIBLINGS~ I (and others) assume that you are speaking of Verne's siblings. An easy mistake...but it made it difficult to try and find answers for you. Make sure that you re-read your posts and clarify anything that a stranger wouldn't know.
