<DIV>I don't know about you all, but the blinking speed doesn't matter much to me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I see the purpose of the blinking as to let you know what symbol you are working with (which can be confusing sometimes without the blinking). Val's idea of having a Blink Key is a good one. That way people can have the blink they want.</DIV>
