Yes, there are people who are, or were, members of the bar actively participate on occasion. Some of my best friends are lawyers :-) But, unless you've paid for it, their opinions on this list aren't worth any more than anyone else's. ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup
