Thanks to the MANY answers I received both on and off List. They are
all filed away.
And the winner is: Eric Grunden of Absolutely British. He suggested a
piece of Plexiglas with either thin strips of painted steel or
refrigerator magnet mat glued around the edges. That being held by
strong magnets behind the aluminum facia. I like that because it
doesn't damage or put holes in the facia. If that doesn't work, I'll
decide what plan B is.
And thanks to John and Ed for the temporary web space!
