I found your mail, I must have not saved it were I wanted.  Will add
this one too.

It may not be equivalent, but the idea is similar, so that's what I
thought folks would understand best.

Hmm, okey doke, I'll ask them for a quick bit of info, and then add
them to the list.

Okay, to one and ALL (businesses included) out there, I've gotten a
bunch more useful information for the list, now that I posted it.
Anyways, I have time to make ONE more version of it, and that will be
this weekend most likely.  So if you want something added to the list,
changed, or whatever, send it this week.  After this week, I'll not be
able to do any updates for quite awhile, probably until this semester
is over.

Thanks for all the positive responses on it too.
