Hi Susan, Claude is having problems receiving the posts so he is trying to fix the problem. When he thinks he has it fixed he sends a post to the list "test" to see if he will receive it. No one will laugh at you. We have all been there at one time or another. None of us knew how to use these things when we first started. You ask all the questions you want. We have a lot of very friendly people on this list who will help you. Welcome to the list and good luck with your research.

She was a voracious reader and an ardent Big "D" Democrat. She was active in the League of Women Voters and Planned Parenthood, and a longtime member of the Oak Ridge Unitarian Church. She loved to cook and the zest carried her life as well as her recipes. Elaine was an optimist and an upbeat realist with a thick skin and an easy laugh. Meals were yoga exercises -- a way to breathe and a chance to learn. At least two discussions were required for every dinner, and a salad to cleanse the palate. She hummed operatic arias and jazz riffs with equal aplomb, and she danced.
