Hello List,

Thank You one and all. I am glad my Misc. Will postings have been
helpful. By in large I think people have enjoyed my posts. I am new to
the list and I did not know just how this sort of posting might go over.
I have started putting numbers in the subject just in case my e-mail
service goes out again I will know which ones to repost.

Thanks,
Barbara
