So far I'm very impressed with the notes in the NET. That's what I bought it for. My only complaint is the print. I have to use a magnifying glass. The online version is great too

Okay. If you would like to explain I would be grateful.

Would you like to share your advice with me?

Thank you for the analysis. I didn't know psychology was your profession.

It's not going to be effective on someone who has their mind made up to believe otherwise.
