At the risk of pushing further off topic and off Legacy focus, I'm concerned that the scenario of one of us passing and a grandchild, perhaps 10 to 15 years in the future coming upon our work and trying to use it.. Looking back 10 to 15 years is suspect any electronic media or software to read the media will not be readily available and only accessible at great expense. Paper and print have stood the test of time. Nick Cirillo --- Jenny M Benson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
