I haven't transferred this note to my word documents so not sure if I replied yet. Your ideas are great. I also read all the messages. It is amazing how some small tidbit will trigger something you know you've read somewhere. Then of course you have to go find it and see if there is a connection, but often there is. I have been "learning" this research for 23 years now. My dad started me out when I was 12 yrs old on a visit to Salt Lake Utah to the "big library." When I discovered the internet a whole new world was opened. Don't give up. Just keep reading and searching. Pretty soon the puzzle starts coming together and it's really fun!!!
