[nagdu] schools

Hi Julie.  Thanks for checking it out.  I am not seeing my own posts on my 
end.  I'll be in touch because I want to try out some of the gear some 
members have talked about.  I think I want to try the Martingale attachment. 
Amos doesn't try to wriggle out, but it just sounds better.  thanks

Sincerely yours,

Bob Hicks,
