Hey, welcome, Linda -and join the club! There are many of us in the same boat! There are indeed "some really smart people here", so post away!
Jabetha, I think I found them! Check out the link in my edited post above.
Hi, Jabetha, and welcome! Please wait for others who undoubtedly know far more about these than I do, but these certainly look similar to me:...
