Hi, Daryl!  Recently you wrote in a message to ARDITH HINTON:

           Precisely my point.  I can copy echomail from our BBS into a
writing area which doesn't scan out.  When I've finished a reply I then
move or copy it into the echo area, which *does* scan out....  :-)

           I hear you.  There are a lot of medical expenses in our
household as well.  Too bad you had to miss the convention... I think it's
important that we include some "fun" activities in our lives. 
And music & dancing are especially helpful because they can give both
the body & the brain a good workout.

           Now, what... if anything... came to light as a result?   :-)
