Thanks for the replies I have gotten on the list.  However, I'm really not
interested in articles or second hand information.  I'd like to hear
directly from people.  If you want to email me directly, that's welcome.  

I'm not posting this to create a flame war or anything.  I'd like to
understand some things better.
