OK, here we go again. Part of the message in my earlier tries was regarding the Bloys Britt Award. Ron Lemasters recommended and I concurred that it probably should go to Kay Presto's entry in the Online Technical Writing about concussions and head injuries in racing -- timely, significant, well-done, all things Bloys probably would have appreciated. Cheers, Jerry
