Hey Roselle,

Thanks for the useful info, as always.  I didn't notice because I always check 
both email addresses so the bn would just get rid of them on its own.  Later, 
Laura

Luther King did, which is get killed one way or the other.  Because people only 
like dead saints, and I refuse to be a saint or a martyr." (John Lennon, 1969)

> "Avoid duplicate copies of messages? When you are listed explicitly in the
