managerSteve Hanner said… Well if you want, we could give it as a prize in contest or something. You could mail it to me(I can give you my address) or hang on to it and we'll say its from you and you can send it if they win the contest. What do you think of something like that?
By the way congrats to your Mom, 91 is quite an achievement!

ModeratorJ.J. Smith III said… If you're sending a message to one or more people directly, use the "TO" location. If you want someone to be notified about the message, use the "CC" also. When you use either of these, their e-mail addresses will be visible to everyone else. If you want to hide everyons e_mail address, use the "BCC".
When ever I send messages to more than one person I always use the "BCC", in order to keep my friends e-mail addresses private.

managerSteve Hanner said… Good job chipmpnk! I see you posted some pics, sadly I can't find the video but you are getting closer!

ModeratorJ.J. Smith III said… "CC" generally means "courtisy copy". When you send an e'mail all people that recieve the message can also see the cc recipients e-mail address also.
Unless I'm doing business, I always use the BCC, which is "Blind courtisy copy". These addresses can not be seen by others. It's kind of a security feature that prevents others from accessing someone olses e-mail addresses.
Hope this helps.
