This is going to be such a fabulous list.

Re: Reordering: There are arrows to the left of the numbers at the left side of the list. Also, you can reorder by just changing the numbers. Do NOT hit "enter" when you do that, though -- just touch your cursor to some other point on the screen, outside the list. If you hit "enter", you'll be tossed out of the "edit" screen and the list is saved "as is" at that moment.

I don't want to go through and manually alphabetize the whole thing - too much work. I'm probably just going to leave it in chunks.

Also, yes, it is shaping up to such an amazing list!

Abandoned by user 5 years ago

I decided to alphabetize by the first letter of the last name, so they are now in a vague sort of order. I refuse to do the full alphabetization, though, because that just sounds hard.
