Arigato, Eric-san; wakatta. "Ne" is one of those words that appears to have several meanings (reminds one of English!), making translation fun. I never heard it used as "eh", but like I said, me and the Japanese language don't talk much. $:-)

I love languages in general, and find Japanese to be particularly fascinating, although here in Florida there isn't much opportunity for practice...
