Re: Delete Me

Thanks Donald,

I am not the owner of this group.  Andre Wiethoff, the author of EAC, is.  I think it would be most appropriate for you to ask him whether he has any objections.

Feel free to email me directly.

Regards,

Now it’s just no-posting or completely unmoderated — nothing in between.  That limits my options a lot in flame wars, so I hope people about to flame each other keep in mind that I’m old, grumpy, and impatient. :)
