Hi Roger, and all, My email service has also been unreliable. I usually receive a number of messages from the list every day. For 5 days in the latter half of March I received none at all! Then in a clump several days worth popped up in one day. It turns out I've missed several important messages, people wondering why I've not answered them. I apologize, If I'd received them I'd have answered them ( I try ).
Thanks for your patience. Edley. > Hello Frank, Anselmo and all, > > I am alive and well but suffering from unreliable email service.
