This should have been done ages ago but I have been completely swamped at work and haven't been able to spend too much time moderating this group.I hope this will change over the next few weeks. My apologies for any inconvenience. I took over from Bill Mayne (interim moderator) during the last part of March. I would like to thank Bill for having kept things running rather nicely during my absence. The change has been smooth though there are some sites (especially the ones at berkeley.edu) that still point to Bill's address. I post three times a day - when in get in, after lunch, and when I leave. I hope this represents fast enough turnaround. If your article doesn't appear in the newsgroup within 24 hrs. and you haven't received mail from me rejecting your article please e-mail your article directly to me. I save about a weeks worth of articles and on request I can mail you the articles that you've missed. As of June 1 I have started keeping track of articles again and I'll post statistics every Sunday. The statistics for this last week are given below. My apologies once again for all the delays. Regards Dinesh Prabhu (prabhu@amelia.nas.nasa.gov) PS: To John Wheeler - I am unable to reach you via e-mail as my site does not recognize your address. I found your article titled "The Benefits of Zazen" a bit off and I wish you would reconsider the article. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- soc.religion.eastern statistics for the week 6/2/91-6/8/91 number of new articles received = 31 number of articles reposted = 0 number of articles rejected = 2 total number of articles posted = 29 the articles are arranged in the order they were posted and all dates are reckoned from my site.
