I appreciate the idea. I'm actually from Ellington, CT and remember
seeing a notice at the Bolton Congregational Church re: CHADD.
It's funny how I didn't think that this would have anything to do with
me.

Speaking of sources, do you or anyone else know of a national CHADD org.
that would send information. I called the W. Simsbury one, and got a
nice newsletter but it assumes that I'm already informed and attending
meetings.

God knows, I've got a load of habits. It'll be "fun" sorting them out.
Thanks
