Got a letter from Carl a couple of weeks later saying (paraphrased) ... "We're real busy working on another project right now, and haven't had time to finish off the GG #1. But we'll be working on it soon ..." I didn't ask 'em to return my check, since I'm sure it'll be worth the wait when it does make it out. I'll post an announcement when I eventually get it. /kim -- UUCP: kim@amdahl.amdahl.com or: {sun,decwrl,hplabs,pyramid,uunet,oliveb,ames}!amdahl!kim DDD: 408-746-8462 USPS: Amdahl Corp.
