I guess because I'm a sysop it's easy.. in fact easier for me to send it by 
netmail than email.. email I have to log on.. You shouldn't feel obligated to 
pay for netmail.  It doesn't cost the sysop a dime unless he sends it direct.

I've had very few netmail messages go astray..

I'm still working on sleeping beauty crossstitch.  that is my main one, but 
I'm doing a bit of quilting... a bit of crochet .. and some box painting..
