You probably don't care. You may not remember me. I've been hanging

loquacious.

My effing (strong language for me!) ISP no longer supports newsgroups
so I cannot use my usual newsgroup program (Free Agent) to read this
group. Google groups isn't very friendly. I don't plan to change my ISP
so don't bother suggesting it. I will be an even more occasional poster
in future.

Sorry if you ask me questions and I seem to ignore you. I will try to
work around this problem. I don't want to post my email address and get
lots of spam. However I'll reveal it to those who genuinely want to
know it.

Get an account at the German news server http://www.individual.net
It used to be free; now it cost 10 EUR per year. My ISP has a news server but I like individual.net better.

Best regards,
