    Well, Lou, I'm still on the NLS pilot download list, so I suspect I'll 
be notified via that channel if nothing else.

And, If I find out something, I'll definitely let you and the other listers 
know.

Don't really know, Tom.  i've left the listserv of the  NLS pilot test so
I've been out of touch.  I've wondered the same thing myself.  No doubt
someone  else on here will have the answer.  Meanwhile, my stream gets a
heavy work out most days.  Lou
