Greetings to all of you.....it is OCTOBER already! October.....the 10th month. That makes very little sense to me though. "Octo" in Latin means 8th....so why is that the name of the 10th month?

I hope you enjoy this edition of The On Ramp and spend some time clicking on the links and exploring!
I welcome your comments and additions to the newsletter! Please email me at editor@bmi.net
