Jim:

All the critics of your efforts and all the "I-told-you-so"s don't matter.
Anyone on this list has the personal choice to believe or dis-believe anyone
(including Bill Cruz).

What matters is:
1)    You made the effort to find answers.
2)    You shared the answers with "The List".
3)    You gave everyone a "heads up".

Well done!  "Better to make a path than follow one."
