Hi John,
    on the windows CD, it is probably still packed in a box, from my last 
move. Not quite as bad as throwing it away but it's about as accessible.
    I wanted to wish you and everyone on the list a very happy Sunday!
    May God bless you all.
                    Mark WZ0K
God loves you!
