Thanks Gina.  Its great to hear about the SU stash.  I'll have to make a
pilgrimage on my next flying trip home!  I want you to know that I ran
across your website right before I bought my Border Collie and I've had so
much fun exploring.  I'm embarressed that I hadn't noticed that theses
articles were already up!  My Mom was actually the one who found the
articles -- ahe's finally made the last plunge into sheepdog-dom from her
formerly stauch dachshund stance.  I'm VERY proud of her!
