Linda and Helga I'm adding the mail list to this discussion - the reason I asked this question is for this very reason and I'm sure you are not the only ones with questions. To belong to the mail list there is never any fee! I want to make that perfectly clear. This area is confusing for many people and I would rather discuss it on the mail list for all to be answered than to send out a dozen separate emails to everyone - I'm sorry if that's a problem for some of you, but makes life easier for me that's for sure. Here is the information for becoming a member of the DVHH (and Jeff Rau might be able to add something to this also) http://www.dvhh.org/membership/ I hope if anyone questions this they will please send to the mail list as I will not be available for a week. I'm sure Roy, Dan, Jody and/or Jeff can help any of you with your questions here.
