Thank you! It was quite overwhelming when I started! I am still not sure how to keep track of them all=D

Yes, this is a good list. I think that I'll try to develop one of my own and post it over the weekend!

I can see where keeping track of all of them might be a problem, though. Hmm. I'll try to develop a system for that, too. Whatever it is, I'm sure it will involve a pencil rather than a computer.
