Hi Jacqui,
Thanks for the info - I guess I have never even seen the real pin...
But yahoogroups does not allow pasting of graphical images (at least not with
default settings) to avoid viruses from being transmitted to hundreds of people
at a time, so if you (OR ANYONE ELSE WITH GRAPHICAL IMAGES TO SHARE) want, and i
hope you (OTHERS) will want, to share the other image(s) you will need to put it
up as either a photo or a file here on the LS or on a web page somewhere and
then direct people to where it is.

I am guessing the first or the third, because i don't think anyone would think
of a slinky when looking at the logo that appears on the current website.
