Klandi Consortium of stella Technologies Likes received: 196	#12 - 2013-06-11 09:32:16 UTC Changed language from English to another - then back again to English. Closed the launcher then opened. All in English now I am aware of my own ignorance and have checked my emotional quotient - thanks for asking
