==============================================
Hi Janis,

Thanks for your reply. I'll look into it soon. Was this the first time 
you saw either of these original messages? Usually I can expect either 
you or Jame to reply if the mail gets thru. The original message was 
early october, iirc. I don't think Jame was seeing mail from me late 
sept or early october, so there must have been some broken links 
somewhere. Then my link went down somewhere about 8th Oct and only now 
just come back up. I don't see much if any mail during that "lost 
month", so my guess is that links were broken rather than no mail.
Seems ok now tho. seems like there is a handful or so of participants 
here now.
