Odd that the above line should be taken *as text* by netnews.  That ought
not to happen unless the article had been doctored on it's way to the net.

Odd that my previous attempt to send mail to janet@cbosgd.UUCP should result
in the following reply from cbosgd's mail daemon:

Coincidence?  Perhaps.

Dan did not explicitly request my articles.  I have now mailed them to his
father/brother(?)'s account on cbosgd.  Somehow I am sure Dan will forward 
them to you.  ;-)
