So for I've sent 100 copies of my procedure to points all around the globe.
That's a little over 10% of the subscribers to this list. This level of
interest comes as a pleasant surprise to me. Three people didn't get their
copy due the following mail errors. Perhaps you can get it indirectly from
another list member.

Also I found these remarks interesting


>Thanks for offering to share your information and experience in this area.
It is always refreshing, but in my experience, certainly not the norm to
have such free sharing of ideas and techniques in a competitive market
place.....our clients (or patients - your preference) will certainly be the
beneficiaries.

>Perhaps many of us think oh, it´s not so great, just everyday routine.
That´s true at least for me. I´ll be more alert on the list if I find an
area where my work can help people in other places. I hope you have inspired
more people than me to share their workmanship.
