Hello Friends, I offer profound respect to all of our MEREDITH/MERIDETH (etc + spelling varieties) colleagues. Especially to the kind souls offering their opinions (listed below). I do not have the "comfuser knowledge" to organize or setup a spread sheet, with the final or selected subjects, that the majority of us would eventually desire. I just offered the suggestion off the top of my head ( I really got this so called brainstorm of mine from a spreadsheet or graph offered by RONHM@aol.com covering another subject awhile back). As you might determine, from the prevous sentence, I would/could not be the party to set this chart or spreadsheet up because of my "duh factor". I hope all of you are well and your spirits have been refreshed from viewing the 911 ceremonies.....I confess a few tears were shed by me.....
