Hi all, and thanks for your welcome; yes, I'm aware of the funny meaning of my handle en English, but as you may have guessed, I'm a big basketball fan, and old enough to have seen Wayne playing with Real Madrid and with the Spanish team; in fact, he was my youth idol, and that's why I picked that name as my alias when I posted in Spanish forums, and when I had to choose a new one for US forums, I decided to stick with it. Glad to see I'm not the only one who hasn't forgotten old Wayne
