Thanks for the info, but unfortunately no, that still doesnt work.  I dont
have the Season/Episode information.  Im looking almost for a scrapper that
will change the file names for me.

Cheers!

Christianity: The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live
forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that
you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul
that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking
snake to eat from a magical tree.  Makes perfect sense!
