Hi Phil, Sure thing. In fact, I have just saved it as a text file. If I remember correctly, aren't attachments banned from this list? I didn't want to go ahead and send the attachment, and have it banned and cause bandwidth problems for the mods. I will send it directly to you. Then, if anyone else wants a copy, I can upload it to sendspace or something if attachments are restricted on this list.
