So how do y'all know this person's name is Brian. The reason I ask is that I
didn't see a person's name on the message, just an e-mail address. I often
times worry about my e-mail system. Sometimes it seems I don't get all of my
messages. Did you receive a previous message that listed the persons name?

Thanks,
Brian
