We are looking for ways to share resources with the ET's. I am sure there are plenty of documents out there that are as good or better than these. If you feel they will add to our knowledge base, and you are willing to share your work, we will come up with a way of getting this material out to all the ET's in an organized manner. The documents found here are able to be modified but, unless you greatly modify them, we ask that you give credit to the author.
