I don't need the answer to that, really! 8-) Sure, things seem to be slow and I currently have a problem receiving stuff here (that queue must be awful big, or aliased to dev/null), but if that's all there is to it, why not send submissions to what used to be known as terminator at umich (sorry, haven't got the address here to hand). Tell us about it on c.s.a.s or c.s.a.s.t and let us use the new mail server there if we can't ftp - like me. The competition may spur Steve on and/or spreading the load of submissions may let him catch up on his backlog. If you question Mr. Grimm's judgement of what's appropriate for the net, (you see, my memory is begining to work, finally) you now have a sort of court of appeal at the umich site. If everybody turns it down, you lost the appeal, it's too commercial or something for usenet. Sorry 'bout explicitly naming you net guardians, umich guys, but it comes with the territory. What matters in the end is the availability to the net of a submission, not where it comes from. Bob Pegram Internet: pegram@griffin.uvm.edu
