Comrades and listers!

My silence on this issue is due to the fact that I am missing some
posts.  I have two computers operating and my mail gets divided between
them  However since they privatised the damn phone system my home line
keeps going on the  blink.  Eventually I will get into my email at home and
so will understand what the heat is all about.


In the mean time I will resist the inclination to participate when I do not
know what has been said.

regards

Gary
