Marylou and others, May I offer an unsolicited opinion? As you can see below this message is so poorly formatted that it is a waste of my, and many others, to try and decipher it. It is just goobledegook. All it would take, is -- before you send a message to the STONE (or any other) list, send it to yourself and see how it appears. If it comes out like below, then reformat it so people will actually read it and try to respond. I'm not going to wade through this garbage looking for a diamond. Help us help you! --John ------------------------------------------------------------------ John D.
