I didn't mean to imply that we should post to Mark's site. My error in
communication. However, by all means submit it to Mark to decide if he wishes
to post it.

I also maintain very large databases of research. I sort all of my research my
location [first state, then county]. Little by little, pieces are falling into place and
connections between locations become apparent.

If research is posted to the website, I generally copy it and sort it into my files.
