Hi Tobin,

First of all, I thank you very much for the reviews, to be honest I enjoyed the process. Yes all of 
us, here we are striving for perfection. I am always open to take suggestions from the community to 
improve things which I am working on and there by improving myself. Yeah English is not my first
language, but all my education was done in English, no issues there.
