I'm would like to add a word in agreement of Lynn Lowe's remarks. On a network such as this, we shouldn't write what we don't want shared. It's easy enough to target individuals for private messages. I too would like to see this as an open forum, used by its participants without fear of possible litigation that could spoil the free flow of information. k. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mrs. Karin M.
