I don't understand these requirements - that's why I wanted off the list 
- I'm not following the discussion. . .

I've tried everything that anyone suggested - still no luck!  Seems you're
not really joking (but I'm sure in my youth I got around those little
passages. . .)

Anyone else help??

Thanks,
Philippa Gamse
