Also, if you look in the files section for this group
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/letterbox-usa/files/), the top
folder -- "A Folder of Useful Information" -- is chock-full of really
helpful tips and info. The file called "terms.txt" will go a long way
toward helping you decipher a lot of the terms you'll see people
use on the list.
