Anyone got any additions and corrections on the compilations already sent? We need to find something for David to do next. I'm sure everyone is searching for their own line. I've noticed that several folks have asked about their line, which are mentioned in later messages. I apologize for now acknowledging every eMail personally. But things are rather busy here. Wonder why?
