One trick that works sometimes is to go ver the stain with a dryerase marker, then wipe erase the new marks. Alot of times that takes the old marks too.

Heroes, conquerors, explorers and knaves � all alike must die. But the greatest men leave something behind. The very lives they lived cause other men to dream. They make our puny lives greater, if only in our imaginations.  -Richard Poe, columnist
