Well... for all intents and purposes, I guess I'm caught up
in telling you folks out there about the new files on
mac.archive.umich.edu (141.211.165.34.. note the NEW ip
number, the old one still works, as well, tho..). Keep sending
files into the "incoming" folder, I'll try to add them as fast as
you send 'em. And, as always.. if you have any comments or
ideas, please let me know asap.. thanks..
Michael...
