LICENSE Info: License?? Everyone is welcome to use any and/or all my code in anyway you see fit. I do ask that you do credit me if you use any portion. I also provide this code FREE of charge and I hope that everyone shares the love and does the same. I encourage you to use bits and pieces of my code if possible. There is no point in rewriting code from scratch if it has already be done! It is a WASTE OF TIME, and INEFFICIENT!! Enjoy all.
