  • Daley will... MESSAGE FROM DALEY: No one told me about this until I'd already put a bundle of time into other things that are more important, IMO. I've been editing the links that didn't work and cleaning up all the external links along with streamlining the Glossary/Object/Report items. On that note, I think what I'm doing is overall more important than needlessly throwing in more and more links. The links we have need to work. Brenna Robertson 21:27, 10 June 2006 (PDT) YOU GO!
