Re: suppressing non-fatal warning messages

Hi Dennis,

Thanks. I understand this point. What I am trying to do in
a lazy way is to change the name of the co-ordinate dimensions
to fit our conventions. So I know what is happening and doing
it intentionally...perhaps I should spend some time and do it
properly (which I should figure out)...
