A good number of list members contacted me with
valuable advice, which I am now pursuing.
As far as I am aware, I have thanked everyone by
personal e-mail message; and just let me now
acknowledge once again my indebtedness to them and to
the list-servs to which I posted. You are all very
professional and very kind.
As soon as I am able, I'll provide a synopsis of what
was told to me (ID sanitized), in case it could be of
value to you in the future.
Thanks!
