I apologize. This newsletter should have gone out weeks ago. It started out that I just held off for a while waiting for a few articles that never came about, but then it happened.

After a lot of aggravation and heartache, I had no choice but to reinstall the operating system and ALL my programs anew. So please, be kind if you find this issue a bit of a mess.
Have a good month
