It's just that the system is overloaded and in too much demand. Try in the
middle of the night, ;o) it works fine then!

I am trying to type up the column headings which are very difficult to read.
I still have a couple of words to sort out in the insurance section (see
"??"), but here it is for what it's worth. I hope to be able to post it all
sometime later this weekend.

The upper case headings are listed first--Word refused to let me insert them
into the numbered bits below without completely messing up the
numbering--frustrating, but I'll try to correct that.
