Att: Diane Turner In the past I have been guilty of not sharing comments and intend not to repeat this error in judgment. I feel Diane made a good case in her posting urging that all list members keep their individual responses to a minimum. It is tantalizing to read someone's request for information and then never see replies. If a meaningful survey were to be made, my guess is that the percentage of members who relate to some degree to the original author would be surprisingly high. A.
