Rick,
I've just gotten to this message. ROTFALMAO. Lightening cooked my modem,
and I've been offline for a couple of weeks. Would you believe +/-2500
messages? When I started to sift through them, I found that everyone came
through three times! I wonder if anyone on the list might know why this
happened.
Regards,
John P
