Re: parting the waters

["Walter Lake" <wlake@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Fred

I'm jealous. I used to have a program that would download, covert to CSV or
Metastock for easy access, but it died. Now I have to start all over and
learn all the details that I never wanted to ever learn.

I'll take primate, I'm not fussy.

Best regards

Walter
