Wishing each and every one a wonderful safe, healthy Christmas Season and New Year. A big thank you to all who have helped me over many hurdles throughout the year with research, for all the interesting requests and their answers, it is amazing what you can learn from some ones else's questions, especially where to look and what has become available. May you all have a great research year in 2003.
