Lottie,

You do the most amazing job of keeping abreast of everything--I can

tell you worked as a legal secretary--this is research of the purest

sort and it benefits all of us so much! Thank you for your hard

work. It is so much appreciated. I have learned so much from going

to the sites you have recommended.

Hugs and blessings to you too,

Vicki
