I'll cut and paste and pm it to you earlene. Tomorrow when I am on the computer (6hrs or so).
Thank you, but thanks to snappyllama's suggestion, I can now read it!
Try opening it with an Incognito window (if you're using Chrome). Sometimes that will fool it..
I love learning new things! Thank you! I always wondered if I'd ever have a need or desire to use the incognito window. It's so cool!

Edited to add:
I may have skimmed it too quickly, but I seem to be missing the loads of mis-information.
The journalist did a fine job of reporting the facts as he learned them, even included a quote from Leigh O'Donnell at the Hand Crafted Soap & Cosmetics Guild. Sure the 'anything in your spice cabinet' for fragrance is a bit off, but he was using a direct quote, and who knows, maybe the instructor really only has things in her spice cabinet that give off fragrance in soap. I know my spice cabinet is much more extensive than hers, if that is the case. But there is no way the journalist would know that was questionable. After all it wasn't an expose.
For an entrepreneurial section piece, it was well done and included links to a few different successful artisanal soap makers, including the instructor whom he quoted several times. Although I would take issue with the statement the instructor made that you can get into the soap making business on under $50, but I liked the caveat by the author 'presuming you don't pay for her class.' Still, we all know that's not the case, not if you want to be successful at it, that's for sure. But that doesn't mean there aren't people out there that do start selling their soaps with such a small investment.
What I found most interesting about the article was that the instructor, whose business and home are in Boulder, Colorado, was teaching this workshop in New York. Manhattan Island, to be exact. That location is not cheap real estate. No wonder the cost of the workshop was $56.00 per hour. Still, I hope she has family or friends in Manhattan to make the trip worthwhile, or at least goes to theatre while she's in town. But I have decided to visit this little spot where she does the workshop next time I'm in Manhattan. It's only 2 blocks from Central Park and about a mile-and-a-half from the Metropolitan Museum. It could be fun.
