- Hmm, okey doke, I'll ask them for a quick bit of info, and then add
- them to the list.
-
- Okay, to one and ALL (businesses included) out there, I've gotten a
- bunch more useful information for the list, now that I posted it.
- Anyways, I have time to make ONE more version of it, and that will be
- this weekend most likely. So if you want something added to the list,
- changed, or whatever, send it this week. After this week, I'll not be
- able to do any updates for quite awhile, probably until this semester
- is over.
-
- Thanks for all the positive responses on it too.
