Due to the bizarre setup of the system on which I read comp.sys.amiga and it's
derivatives, I don't have read access to new.groups. Could someone please
either email me information on how to vote, or post the same information to
comp.sys.amiga?
Please note that I can only send mail over the Internet, so don't give me a
usenet address without including instructions on how to gateway my mail from
Internet to wherever it needs to be. Thanks in advance!
P.S. I wouldn't asked Kent, but whenever I try to send him (you) mail, it
bounces. Boing!

[Just flaming wonderful; I posted this with the only useful information, my Internet accessible address, wrong. Sorry for everyone who saw the original before the "cancel" caught it. No wonder people have trouble getting mail to me -- I have no idea where I am.] fmcphers@VTTCF.CC.VT.EDU (Frank McPherson) writes: >Due to the bizarre setup of the system on which I read comp.sys.amiga and it's >derivatives, I don't have read access to new.groups.

There shouldn't be anyone anywhere that can't reach me via my Well address, though, one of the best known sites on the greater net after uunet. Here is how to reach me via an Internet site, in case anyone else is in the same situation; the hard way with flat-earther bang path addresses: ames.arc.nasa.gov!zorch.sf-bay.org!xanthian for mail to me, or ames.arc.nasa.gov!zorch.sf-bay.org!csa-vote to submit votes. Zorch polls ames many times a day (local phone call), this is a fast path. [I would have _sworn_ there wasn't a site in the world that couldn't get through to me; I get email from South Africa, for heaven's sake!] /// It's Amiga /// for me: why Kent, the man from xanth. \\\/// settle for <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us> \XX/ anything less? -- Convener, ongoing comp.sys.amiga grand reorganization.
