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!
