Howdy MG,

You obviously had fun with this, and it shows

I'm sure that Jane will be very happy with her birthday presents - I say presents since there are so many styles in this one!

ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry,

Yes, Jane likes it. But here's one of those things that belongs in the believe it or not category. "Happy Birthday," through written in the 1890s, is under copyright until 2030. I guess I'll have to put a disclaimer somewhere in the manuscript that commercial use is forbidden. Google it; it's an interesting story of how the copyright got continued, and involves some big names in the music industry.

best,
mgj
