<<Get her to start reading the thread, and maybe she'll try a little Q herself; Aunt Nancy did.>>

won't work: she's convinced these boards are the spawn of the devil, designed to waste time and infuriate spouses. My strategy is going to be the following: her hobby is animal rescue work, and she's always dreamed of opening up her own shelter someday (after tenure, let's hope).
