Thank you for doing this Harriette. I stopped by for a quick
look, and it's *beautiful*! Really nice job. :) Don't
apologize for anything. Since I'm working on one myself, I
know what you go through to get something up there. It's a
LOT of work IMO. :)

:) I'm still not sure what you're needing. Are you saying
you want to link to others pages? For example, where you
show Caira, would you want to link that to where I have
her on my web page? Or are you saying that you need us to
send you the data? The first case, I can give you the URL
to link to. If it's the second, I'm not sure how to transfer
it to you...

I'll have to go back. I didn't have a lot of time, and didn't
check for errors.

You can grab the pic of Caira from my web page or I can send
it to you if I haven't done that already.

What is a person report page? Like a little "bio"?
Sounds interesting.:)

You have me listed, and that's fine. You may list my e-mail
address, no problem. And you may link to my page, no problem.
It may take me a while to link back to the Hoisington-L page
though. I had a "situation" where someone else made my Capital
Net page. I've been "learning" on the Walden page, but really
feel that I only know the basics at this point. Anyway, the
person who was handling C Net for me will no longer be doing it,
so it's going to take me a while to figure everything out. I
will get to it eventually though.

I don't have any criticism. I think the only thing is to add to
any web page over time. (That's just a fact, not a criticism:)
I'm sure it will grow and change, and just keep getting better and
better all the time. *I* like it, and I don't see any problems
with it. It looks great, and everything seems to work fine.
