I was sort of waiting for permission from Allison and
the staff. I had hoped.thought she would. I didn't
want to get her into trouble--but I suppose writing to
the list has the same effect.
Anyway, for those reasons...However, I'll pass the
buck--and send the list to you as an rtf
attachment--and you can post it if you want. smile
