Gene I'm really confused because the pictures I sent were sent to your 
e-mail address.  They were sent as photo attachments in excess of 1 mega 
byte each and there is no way they went to the list because 1) the list 
doesn't accept photo attachments and 2) I didn't send them there.  It 
doesn't matter other than the fact I'm confused.
