Well, I finally found my storage timetable.  I asked for one a while 
back but never received one,.  Since a few people asked me to send one
when I got one, here it is.  I found it in the back of an old cookbook
I never use anymore.  I guess I packed it there when I moved once, and
never got around to digging it out.
