  Thank all of you so much for responding. I now have a sample of 59, and am hoping for a few more. Although, I probably won't get 100 responses, will get enough for getting reliable results. So, if there are a few more who would like respond, I would appreciate it. If you don't want this information for yourself to be put here, you can e-mail me the info. No names will be put into the data base, only the survey information. Such is standard operating procedure when doing survery research. I plan to analyse the information this Saturday, and will post the results on Sunday. Thanks again, everyone.
