HIT: Policies and Procedures

[S Brisco <sbrisco021@CHARTER.NET>]

Thanks to everyone who sent me their policies and procedures.  I've also had
requests for links to anything that was available online, so I thought I'd
post a hit so those of you who are also working on this can access some of
the same links that I've found or that were sent to me.  I'll forward a
finished copy of our new policy and procedures manual to those who have
asked when I'm done and it's approved.  In the meantime, here are some links
to get you started...I know I have tons to write now!
