Re: my web page is up

Hi Guys,

for my two cents worth..... if someone wants credit for something they can
say so...I think most of us don't mind helping each other.

I think it would be ok to have a mail link or we could say for more info
contact majordomo at...... and have them go through the process of subscribing.

Adios
