Here is another site some might find some info in. Again I have not had time
to check this out....if I took the time to check all these great site out I'd
never get any house work done. So I hope no one minds that I send info on that
I haven't gotten to check out myself. I do know Don and even tho he is on a
diffrent list alot of his info is helpful to us all and does not waste any
time sending bad info. If you wanted to wait on me to
check these out it could be a month before I got to pass them on. This way
you do not have to wait on me to find your info...if the sites help.
Good Luck,
Sheryl
