Suggestion.  The list won't accept attachments but
MuseDocs will, and perhaps others could also benefit
by having the info.  If you would like to post it to
MuseDocs, go to:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MuseDocs

Once you sign in, click on the Files link on the left
side, and you can update your document there.  Then
just sent that list--and this--a note indicating the
document(s) is (are) available.
