I had to dump most of the remaining 'hollings /pac*bell' replies. They were extremely long and generally redundant, and there were two dozen of them. The queue is cleaned out as of tonight. If you have not seen your message here by Wednesday morning, it had to be sacrified in the interest of getting up to date. *Please do not re-subnit it*. Patrick Townson
