get here, i find i have well over 200 emails........so naturally i've had to do
MASS deletions...........without ever having a chance to read
them.............just WAY to time consumming. for the list.....
i'm sure you've had PAlenty of suggestions...........but just in

etc. and they are nicely tapered. i've got 'em in bout 5 different natural
colors as well........ mark..... p.s. you can email privately to continue
