Chad,
It's not a direct result of anything that happened with our vendors. Just a dislike for the word "sheet" on my part because the documents can be viewed electronically rather than just printed (there are no sheets to my screen). How it might be mistranslated was just another excuse for not using that word. Sneaky, ain't I?
Happy Friday! :-)
