Haggridd,

This sounds perfect!!
As a fellow health-care worker, I think I'll love it!

little HIPPA humor:
I just came back from a conferance this week where one of the MD's 
who spoke told us of an upcomimg seminar in the shadow of HIPPA:
He said, that they anticipate a large crowd, but no-one will be able 
to say anything to anyone, and they won't no who registers, or where 
the talk will be given!! 8)
I know, goofy joke, but it brought the house down!!

thanks for your tip!

Anna . . .
