Hi Lance,

Sorry for the confusion ..... it's amazing how a simple missing quotation 
mark or two can disrupt an entire article!  I was putting the feature 
together, and posting it, in a mad rush before today's rally and missed 
inserting a couple of quotation marks in the HTML tags -- screwing several 
sentences up.

Thank you for the careful attention --- how does it look now?  Feel free to 
make changes ....

I have a short feature ready to go about today's coverage, once it starts 
appearing on the newswire -- I've seen photos, and I expect more will be 
arriving shortly.
