NOTES

Our 3 Notes pages were approaching 100kb each, becoming unmanageable and inconvenient to use.
We've made the new NOTES (e.g., on this page) as pop-ups. That is, when a "NOTES" link is clicked for a sequence, a smaller popup window will appear with only the notes for that selection. Result: much faster access.

If the popup is left open, then a click on the main page will hide the NOTE window, but a click on a new NOTE will fill the same popup with new info, and bring it back to the foreground (allow a few seconds for it to load.) It will NOT open yet another popup window - you only get one, and only need to close it at the end of your listening session!
