[TheForge] NJ Tools update

[Grover.Richardson at gtri.gatech.edu]

I would make return address stickers with numbers on them.  That way you
can easily identify them inventory control.  That is what I do for work.
I come to an item, apply a sticker, make a voice note on my PDA, so that
I can enter them into an xls sheet later on.

Good luck. Sounds fun.
