We are returning to the classroom and numerous time consuming responsibilities. This means we will not be able to answer or post as many letters. We are setting a strict time limit of only 30 minutes per day allotted to answering your numerous requests, so most will be ignored. We are getting about 100 letters per day and can only post a few.

Don’t forget to scroll down to see our most recent postings and you can see the alphabetized archive of links on the lower left.
