I do scan each and every email message to see if there are any "useful" websites listed in the message. I have stored all those messages and today I have put the useful websites (maybe useful) in this one email message. I must make this disclaimer: I have not visited each of those websites listed below and I do not know if the information is good or not. The words before and after each message was furnished by the original author. The character "=" indicates the beginning of a new message, so each stuff between "=" & "=" represents one message. Good luck.
