Give me a bit; I'm busy digging myself from under the pile of mail accumulated
in the last few weeks (bronchitis sucked, especially when it got to the point
where one can't stay asleep for more than an hour or get more than about 5 hours
per day total).  I'm trying not to throw anything relevant out, but if I don't
reply to something important today or tomorrow, please resend it my way -
the pile had been 36Kmail (down to 24K now) ;-/
