Russ, Well, you seem to prefer to do things manually instead of computerizing them. I prefer to computerize thing so I don't have to do them manually. What if we carry this to the ridiculous limit: Why use computers at all since we can do it all manually. Proper classification of things also has big payoffs down the road. How do you think the Green Leaves got so smart? ;-) Smart sourcing opens up all kinds of opportunities in addition to time saving in constructing tens of thousands of source references.
