Hi Lou

I thought I sent you a reply, but something went wrong (of course,) and you guessed mine correctly as clairvoyant, but I don't know if we connected with my answer. I am still struggling with following, being followed, being RSS's and everyone's blog seems to have different settings. For example, I have you as one of my followers, but I am not a follower of yours although I am a member, Duh?
