Abject appologies to net.emacs (na).  I just assumed everybody's
software prints the organization data like mine does and would
show I am in Pittspurgh, PA.  Observe, I have added a signature
block to reduce future problems.

At any rate, Barry Shein's follow-up suggests there is no formal method
of distributing GNU Emacs and I must find someone who is willing to give
it to me.  Therefore, to repeat, I run Sys III on an Altos M68000 based
machine (The old one, not the new 3068.) which has a quarter inch cartridge
tape drive and an 8 in floppy.  Tape transfer is not likely to be possible
with a different box, but I am willing to experiment.  The floppy can
handle several formats, the safest is probably standard IBM sssd.  I also
run cpmutl7 in this format.  Depending on where you are and the size of
the source, which I am told is quite large, I can also poll you on a
uucp connection or use cu on a guest login.  If anybody is willing to
help, please contact me.
