David, et al.,
        
        Terribly sorry about not sharing things. Some is intentional, if I
feel that I may not know what I'm talking about and would only like one
person (the recipient) to know that. The other reason was kindly brought up
by David, in that I'm using a new email program and with his helpful "reply
all" comment, I just figured out how to send things to the person and the
group. Ain't technology grand!

                Best Regards,

                        Jack
