After furious head scratching, Joanne asked:
| Geoff,
|
| You missed a couple of steps: Walk into a room full of volunteers
| (thinking they're employees), ask a question, get a rude answer,
| rephrase the question, providing more information, get another rude
| answer, give up on Microsoft Office, download Open Office from
| openoffice.org. Live happily ever after.
