Re: PEN-L Digest - 8 Jun 2007 to 9 Jun 2007 (#2007-163)

Well, naturally, I'm happy to learn that I'm not under attack. I
don't know how multiple copies went to Hari; I'm pretty sure I didn't
send any directly to him but it may be that he's on one of several
mailing lists that picked up the call and circulated it as well. I
know how I hate receiving multiple long messages when I'm in Cuba
(and greatly limited in terms of e-mail access); sorry about that.
