Cheryl!

Yes, I see. I did read back a bit but probably didn't get all the

dialogue. But what I did get out of the whole thing is that you

continue to be a great and wonderful source of nutritional

information and I truly value it (even if I don't follow it all due

to an enormous amount of laziness when it comes to my diet. I'm

awful ... I'm a computer programmer ... ever hear of the computer

programmer diet? A bag of doritos an an extra-large Coke). But just

wanted to drop in the middle of it to let you know that your great

advice doesn't go unnoticed.

Keep up the good work!
