[Rwp] Creating Envelopes Using The Keyboard

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

We did do graphing, yes, but with my slow learning disability, I didn't 
quite understand.

I never said I hadn't heard the term.  I have.  Many times.  I just didn't 
exactly understand what it was.  Sorry if I might have either irritated or 
offended anyone by asking.  Not saying I did, but if! I did, I'm sorry.

It was just an honest to god innocent question.

Chris.
