[Austin L. Denyer (SysAdmin.) as root]

Hi guys.

I must admit that I am sending much of my e-mail from root.  You are
correct in that this is generally a Bad Thing.  However, I am making so
many changes to my system at the moment, many of which have to be done
as root, that it is impractical to keep changing.

Once I have got this laptop sorted I'll be back to my user account.

Thanks for your concern though guys #;-D

Regards,
Ozz.
