From: Bruce Martin on 8 May 2010 15:48 Dear Zak: You will need to do some reconstruction to handle this. I have a self-created .ODT Template that should handle this well with some added work. Your message says sent May 8 at 3.33 PM, but what time zone are you in? I am near Montreal Canada and in the Eastern Daylight time zone. I am about to go out to the drugstore to get a prescription filled. But will be back later. If you can email me privately with your phone number, I can then explain what this template does for you and attach a copy be return email.

(That's Central European Summer Time) This also means I went to bed not long after posting the message ... so I only read your answer today. > If you can email me privately with your phone number, I can then explain > what this template does for you and attach a copy be return email. Wow, that's nice of you! Luckily it wasn't _that_ urgent. Anyway, I'd be happy if you could sent me that .odt and some explanations.
