RE: race card
Hello Tom Hansen,
Thank you, but you trying to give me credit for something I did not do.
I did not extract the text from the original website. I did not even know
where the website existed. The credit should be give to Melynda Huskey who
found the website for us. I only found an extract of text on a completely
unassociated website that did not include the original website the Melynda
Huskey found for us.
But thanks anyway,
Cheers!
John Harrell
