You do understand, Lisa, that ray, has (don't you, ray?), a big group 
commercial type kitchen in which to do his canning.  That probably helps with 
quantity.  I hope to make use of one of those facilities, out of the 
generosity of their group (I will do volunteer work, there if I do, also) as 
soon as I decide whether I'm going to stay put or board up and go on hiatus 
if things really fall apart .....bobford
