[DMCForum] Re: Hybrid question for Dr. Dave - Paging Dr. Dave...

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I didn't intend to start a debate. I'm only asking if it can be done 
and how it's done. There's a lot more too my line of questioning but 
I'm not interested in getting into the debate.

Many of you are just pointing out what I already know or are making 
false assumptions about what I intend to do.

I'd still like to here from Dave Delman.
