Thanks for the reply, Shiri!

Phew, just a brief look at Frank's page and clearly there is a daunting
amount of info and number of sites to browse through.  I am ever impressed
with the endless possibilities of creativity by this community!  ...And yes,
the list-by-member for CW is more what I was looking for originally.  Thanks
again!
