Good find, Eric.  Thanks!

Some months ago we had a discussion here looking for such a directory, 
and no one could turn up one which was writable by even non-admin accounts.

But I was able to verify that specialFolderPath(35) can indeed be 
written to and read from by admin and non-admin accounts.

Good sleuthing!
