I would just like to say as a "newbie" to the list, that for me it's not only the "useful information" that is important but also the support group aspect. I think that it's wonderful that this is not just an information forum but also that through the "yammering" the personalities of the people on this list come through, hence the "support" aspect. After all, we're not in an auditorium listening to a guest speaker. Lori Bauer cg for grandmother 87/7 [log in to unmask]
