I am 72 and have MS and am so very grateful when I can at least search for something on the net... and quite often find what I am looking for. And if not there are almost always those who will offer a helping hand. Thanks, Ed, for the reference numbers. When the weather cools and I can go to the library again this Fall this will be a big help.
