Rollensmoke – While I am not newbie-friendly myself, I do have several provider friends that are. With any 2 of their references, I can see you.
Of course, even my newbie-friendly provider friends have requirements – most of them feel better if you have a preferred411.com account, & provide them with a little bit of personal information.
I know getting started can seem daunting – but really, it only hurts in the beginning!
