[stylist] blog help needed

[Judith Bron]

Jim, Another person told me to check out blogspot.  I went there yesterday 
and I'm considering it.  I want to create my own blogs on a few things, one 
of them being the new handicapped.  I'm still thinking it through.  I'm 
keeping your message around for future reference.  I'll let you know what I 
end up with.  Thanks, Judith
