Thanks, Greg, Mark, Dan, and the rest of you ... It's strange to be the subject of a Usenet string and I don't want to discourage any discussion. It sounds like I'm being quiet or ignoring Usenet postings. My silence grows from a mountain of e-mail that I'm answering. Additionally, I've been on the road a lot, and have no newsreader when I'm away from home. Finally, certain personal and professional problems demand attention. All the same, I'm amazed at the accuracy of some of the comments posted to comp.org.eff.talk ... and saddened by others. I'll try to reply to any e-mail that comes my way; but for now, I'll keep my mouth shut over the usenet. That doesn't mean that I don't have any opinions!
