Hi Sue
Thanks for the site. I talked to our new librarian today and he told me who to call
at Mayo to try and
get permission to be a patron and get lots of their information. Hope it works. Will
call next
week--figure this is a busy week for everyone including Mayo.
I am simply going to have to bug poor Kathy and learn how to make links. After all,
she has nothing
better to do than instruct us computer geniuses, right : ) (Like heck, I can hear
Kathy muttering in
the background--G)
Isn't that the story all the time--I promise this won't hurt you as it is only a
little bit of spray.
I like technology too, but I wish we wouldn't jump quite so quickly to use it all the
time.
Thanks again for sending the book--as soon as I get through this week, I can read
it--hooray. I caught
Ed giving it the ole' hawkeye look so will have to watch over the book or he will
begin reading it.
