GM> JE> Shouting? I do not understand. If I did, please accept my apologies.

GM>No, it should be me offering the apology.  I thought I had put a "smilie"

GM> JE> I rather doubt it. There are far too may uneducated users that really

GM>You don't have any idea how the Canadian postal system works (when the
GM>Canadian postal system works), do you?

Well yes a little understanding. I received and sent color slide
packages from/to Canada and also all over the world for years - Working
with the San Antonio Photographic Exhibition. Had I sent them surface,
the delivery time could be in the order of 2-3 weeks to months. I
figured Air would/might speed it up a bit - and was actually less
expensive that surface!

GM>You don't want to hear the whole spiel!  The short answer is "Not yet."

GM>I'm hoping to get it sometime within my current life.  <grin>

GM> GM>> I hope you have noticed my mail to Charles A. (and other) regarding

To him no - to others yes. I have changed your addy in my address book.

GM> GM>> my W2K problem and the fact that the e-mail address has changed

GM> GM>> Unfortunately, I didn't have an opportunity to transfer my address

GM>I'll search through the message base to see if I can locate your message
GM>regarding your e-mail address...
