This is very interesting. My current policy stands, however, if TLC explicitly asked me to include current instructions, I would probably accomodate their request. KL (...) (25 years ago, 13-Apr-00, to lugnet.general)

Excellent points, all of you. I assumed I had asked an unanswered question, but it appears I was wrong. Thanks for the insight. (25 years ago, 13-Apr-00, to lugnet.general)
