I'm sorry that this provoked such a vehement response and I've sent you a separate message directly. For everyone else I apologise adding to the noise in this group. The fact is that four previous requests over the last two months had gone unheeded. Probably they got lost somewhere. In any respect I simply escalated into mode two, send a message to everyone that looks remotely involved. Unfortunately it also spilled over into the mailing list and newsgroup itself. That was not intended. However as I pointed out to Barry if one of the first four messages to what I thought was the correct address had worked then I wouldn't have had to do it. -- Stuart.Lynne@wimsey.bc.ca {ubc-cs,uunet}!van-bc!sl Vancouver,BC,604-937-7532
