That's funny Dan. I came up with the same item using google. Wasn't sure enough to send it back to the requester so thought I would put it out and see what comes back. Got to me when I typed the name into both google and yahoo search and got the vital stat page on our site as the response. The only response. <grin> Thanks Dan. All of your pages have been taken care of except the newspaper one and I sent it along to Ivy so she can catch it. All the rest ore done. Really appreciate the information and you help.
