A side comment; after rechecking after I submitted, the system seemed to chew up plus signs and ampersands. After I submitted and rechecked again, pretty much everything after an ampersand sign was erased, including the sign. I don't know if this is an issue.

There is an issue if you paste from word ....

I'll say.

What is the word issue? and what is the solution?

Never mind, got it. sheesh that was something. My advice for the last minute submitters. Copy and paste to notepad and save without formatting, then CTRL C, CTRL V to the form.

Oops. Teach me to post before reading all the threads.... I thought the deadline was last night, not tonight.

I'm a big fan of the "11:59PM" deadlines, cause then there's no ambiguity.
