Yes to all of the above, and if they have trouble figuring out who to talk to, let me know and I'll get them in touch with the right people. Just for the record, we just finished a T3 (Teach the Teachers) class here for college/university faculty. We had one last summer, and I would be surprised if there wasn't one or more next summer. Turning a big boat is a slow process, but it can be done. /ahw > > >Jon L.
