You're welcome, Cycloneye. Someone asked for information on WWBB (I think Weather53) and I have the entire list from 1886-1999 compiled in Excel Documents and printed out in folders here ... over 700 pages of stuff that I did several years ago... I just had to find the folders! (*LOL*)

I thought it would be interesting stuff to share with everyone.
(Now if I had enough space on my website, I'd post it there... )
