Well, DP, you certainly are aware of your computer terms. Perhaps "Word
Document" has not found a way into your vocabulary? It just might be that you
didn't receive the file as a "Word Document", but I sure did. And, running on
Windows 95, my computer automatically opened it via WordPad. It's unfortunate
that you couldn't read it....So, the play was unsolicited garble. Why get so
uppity and standoffish about it? If you were truly interested in it, why not
send Mr.Stoneking an Email explaining what happened?  Obviously you wanted to
read it, considering you tried to open the file. I understand your intentions
of warning us all about such a mishap, and do appreciate your concern, but
your note did sound full of venom. Your subsequent notes were awfully
aggressive as well. Perhaps, if you refrained from cursing, you might get a
point across. Honestly, I don't have a clue as to why I'm even bothering to
reply, you're only going to give a good lash back to me. In any event, I here
apologize to the entire list for using it as a sparring arena. I simply
thought that people should not be skittish about downloading and reading
files. Sometimes, garble happens.
