Wow, a short post, but there was so much there -- & my reading has been behind lately, but I took the time to follow the back links --- very interesting. Glad I took the time!
Thanks for reading it, Joan. There was so much material. I pretty much stumbled upon it, so I'm still trying to get my mind wrapped around it! Cathy
