Well, the reason I haven't talked about Stan's latest release here is because I
figured everyone was already aware of Stan's excellent bulletin board on his
website where so many of us have been talking about it. Anyone who hasn't been
there should check it out at http://www.stanridgway.com/bbs/index.php. Stan
posts there regularly, so go have fun. Go on, get outta here!

Rock on,

Ms. Vieuxdo
