*** Sorry to post this to the net; I couldn't reach you by mail. ***

If your site has a connection to the European continent (which doesn't
cross the Atlantic twice, as did your article before it reached mcvax :-),
would you be willing to mail this new Kermit to me, or post it to eunet?
This might save lots of intercontinental uucp-calls.

Maybe your electronic address is not obvious -- it's not on our usenet map
and the return path from the news article didn't work either.
