Jack Keller used to be a regular contributor too. He was an expert at

Lum, of course, continues to give his advice as he did back then.. and
there's many others I'm sure..

As far as word docs. It's true I could just google them, but not nearly as
easy for me to retrieve as pulling up a word doc on the subject of interest
where I've saved the key info from several post'ers over time. Too each
their own, I guess..
