Can you put up a web page or something that summarizes all the stuff you
refer to frequently?  Tracking it down is hard for those of us who tuned in
late.  For example, I have this recollection that at one point I managed to
Google down a posting in which you summarized most/all of your notations
and what they mean, but I didn't bookmark it.  I know that you are not big
on the handholding, but a summary crib sheet would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Scott
