Dear Deborah, I did get the following e-mail though the board, why don't you try the other e-mail to me a LostCst@mcn.org. I have a vast faith in the non-abilities of computers to function. Love and prayers, and good wishes to you, Sally Grigg( p.s.) There's something called plain text and HTML and they're not on all computers? I don't know what I'm talking about, but that message came up when I tried sending this the first time.
