Symbolics Lisp Machines?

Wait a moment, I'm one of the people of the RCS/RI! I just this minute
returned from our monthly Open House. Let me back up a moment, here,
because I don't get all the RCS/RI's traffic, and I haven't heard of any
of this. We've had several members seriously sick recently, and if
you've been conversing with one them then that's why you haven't heard
back. I will forward this message among the RCS/RI members. Meanwhile,
would the original poster of this traffic please e-mail me with details
so that I can fetch them around inside the RCS/RI so that they don't get
lost again?
