[humanser] Thank You for the Ideas

[Merry Schoch]

Congratulations, JD.  I know how long you struggled when looking for 
employment, and I am going through those issues as well.  It amazes me the 
discrimination that goes on in the mental health field; I just expected more 
acceptance for this arena.  Glad to hear you can work with the Word.doc 
issue.  Again, congrats!!  Best to you always - your ole' Tampa buddy,
Merry
