You have my sympathies.<BR/><BR/>And yes, I was brought up to think that EVERYTHING should be saved and NOTHING should be ... deaccessioned ... shall we say. So throwing stuff out? Horrors.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with that. So far I've been doing my penance of a half-hour daily and it hasn't been too taxing, though I won't say great progress has been made either.
