Apologies

[Tompaleo@xxxxxxx]

To all members of the three lists. Last week a severe lightning storm zapped
my computer and modem. The problem did not become known to me until a day or
so later. I have since been scrambling to get a substitute modem and make
other repairs. Therefore, many of you may have received "mailbox full"
notices attributable to me. I humbly apologise for any and all clutter that
my system crash may have caused. No flames are nescessary since I had no
control over this and did my best to correct the problem!

                                              regards,
                                              Thomas R. Lipka
