Hi All,

Here is my BX report.  I am reporting successes and don't know yets, no 
failures yet that I know of.  Many thanks to all of the contributors, many 
of these have been on my wish list for a long time and I was not sure I 
would ever find them.  Also many thanks to Dell Sherk for managing the 
exchange so well.  I will follow up later on the don't know yets.

Regards,

Jay
