How many Robert Cohens do we have on the list now? I'm getting confused.
Can you distinguish yourselves in your sig line in some way, as Lori (at) MAX
and I do?
Maybe that wouldn't even work, as there's still confusion over that one.
We were commenting to one another that people often think one's
postings belong to the other. I wish I had said some of the
intelligent, charming and witty things she says -- and the lyrics! The
"As Time Goes By" parody was priceless! :-)
