Doug,
    There's no reason for you to keep quiet; I would have continued
to post programs to this newsgroup but I was told not to so I have
been sending them to APPLE2-L@BROWNVM.BITNET; I'm on UUCP also and
so I can't get the INDEX or NOTEBOOK unless someone on BITNET is
kind enough to send it to me (thanks Grant Delaney and Murphy Sewall!)
but I am able to receive the programs that have been posted since
I've become a subscriber to APPLE2-L.
    I've brought up the question of a comp.binaries.apple2 section
but so far have been voted down and/or there's not enough traffic
to warrant same, etc., etc., ad nauseum.  Chris Chung now tells us
that his disk space is filled up and so, perhaps, now the *net gods*
will take our needs into consideration; after all, there are binary
groups for the MAC (arrrgghh), Atari, etc.
