    WelI I'd love to know how you found the comp, as I only found one comp from this website before I posted this one... :confused:

    I did search the URL, as in the actual www. etc...

    I entered one of the other comps you posted earlier this evening and saw it on the website. I remembered entering it some time ago as I recall waiting while a decision on the location was reached. (I think some posts have been deleted from the other thread now.)
    When I saw yours I searched using "Kinder Resevoir."
    The rest, as they say... ;)
