Joe did a fantastic job!  I already printed one for my records from my original scan.

The list has been very helpful to me, glad to return the favor and see people have fun with it.

Thanks.

Craig,

That is very kind, but you have give me the well deserved credit due to Joe 
Burlein ... he did all the editing and cleaning up!  All I did was to add a 
font sample to Joe's excellent work in the hope that we could use a similar 
font to create our own window stickers ...  although I should acknowledge 
that without your original scan, we would not be where we are now, so many 
thanks to you both!
