Hmmm, as I recall, Marge passed away some years ago...maybe not.

I didn't take it as such...just pointing out that you've been missing from
202 for a long time.

Yeup, you were gone by the time I was nodelisted in January of 96...even
though I was around the net as a user long before that.

Umderstandably, as the 'unpublished' field requires a Pvt flag...

Since your 6/0 node is basically a ZIN, you should be able to use HOLD and
leave the rest intact until you finally get listed again.

Hang on a minute. Checking my archives, I don't seem to find them on the
HDs. Perhaps I've already put them on CDs...I'll check again and get back
to you on that.

Oh well, something to look forward to when you return to VA..
