    Thanks for responding to Cory's question.  I'm at my place up north whereas I have only limited time on the library's computer.

    Speaking of which, I gotta go for now.

    I like this thread. Smiley And just want to add, the posture and various hand mudras on those statues all have meaning, it's a kind of silent sermon.
