That said I may be offline for a day or two. I'll be looking for you tomorrow afternoon if possible or day after if not.
Thank you for the excellent discussion.
*gosh*
Thank you
both, too! I'm enjoying this very much as well!! I don't get the chance to do this sort of back and forth in writing very often. It's good practice -- and challenging.
