-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Welcome Diana
We are always happy to see nubes at the meetings and on the list. Oh and by the way... I have made several sudden moves around Marcel and ... nothing... so I think the recovery is going well. (Must be those wings - right Marcel?) Looking forward to seeing you at the meeting Diana... I for one am hoping that Dan and/or Szemir will bring at least a few copies of CLUGGIX as I haven't been able to play with the recent version either.
