Talk & Line: Sample of format for SAAA 5.0

Talk & Line: Sample of format for SAAA 5.0

   SAAA 5.0 is almost done.  As you may recall, I had decided to add a 
couple of extra info lines to each entry.  Here's an idea of what an entry 
will be like:

____
SIDN: 5.137
Item: guitar, bass, amp and speaker composite

   As you can see, it has the usual from line, plus a Scarecrow ID Number 
(or SIDN), and an item line describing what it is.

   Do you prefer this?  If it is used, I will go back and redo the first 
four archives.  Then an index can be made.
