Xist - you're welcome! May it serve your torso well.

Strangest mis-reading of ecomodder I've heard was a guy who pronounced it "eee-commode-r" ... as in, "what a fancy electronic toilet you have there."

I'm sad that ecomodding never entered the general lexicon the way hypermiling did. Wayne won that round. (Anybody know if he actually coined the term? Memory is supect, but I don't think Ben or I actually coined "ecomod/der/s/ing"... we were brainstorming with some people online somewhere)
