LBTC-Welcome to the board and what great tips. If you haven't had a chance yet (I started from the bottom of the unread posts and am working up so forgive me if you already did) theres a post in the open thread called "Getting to Know You". Its got all kinds of fun stuff about us and we would love to hear about you if you're so inclined!
