Tom,
I think Cathie was responding to my previous E-mail which complemented yours!
It gets tricky when you have multiple Toms (Warner, Caperton, Burt).

HI Cathie!
Sorry if I interrupted your artistic expression, I was only passing along a
picturesque scene
that I thought the other members of this list would get a kick out of. I
used to live ( for many years) in northern calif. and spent my share of time
in Santa Cruz.Still have a niece in Aptos. If you pay attention to this
list, I think that you will see that they are a pretty nice bunch of people
that like old CHEVY pickups................years ago, I owned some other
brands of vehicles, but now that I am on this list, I don't want to cause to
many ripples.
perhaps if you listen a bit and ask pertinent Questions, you might learn. I
HAVE.
Sorry if I sound like I am lecturing, but, it sounded like that to me.
