Paul,
It looks good.
When get back to the office - I will give you the computer figure.
There are a few typo's
For example, the firm is Rosenzweig & Maffia LLP....and in the paragraph
that states that you must take the two classes as one...it say "no" when
it should say "not".
It should be no problem for the space -at- R&M. My only comment is that
conference room needs to be cleaned up alittle better.
Talk to you latter.
Joe
