Larry, you might want to take a look at Benlessard's system. Not recommending it necessarily, but Ben is a strong believer in finding a landing spot for hands where responder is very negative. If I remember right his responses are something like...

1D-hearts, very weak or GF
.....1H-willing to play 1H
1H-spades, very weak or GF
.....1S-willing to play 1S
1S-denies a major?, very weak or GF?

and then his other bids should be semipositives.

His is a relay system. Don't know if you like relay or not.

Thanks. Very similar to what I play in another partnership.
