 Hey Ed - are you going to be travelling up to the Fort Tuthill Annual Ham
Swapmeet in Flagstaff this year? (July 25th, 26, 27th) If so, I and
Marvin Johnston will be there. Last year we got some good classiccmp type
items - also brought a load to sell.

  This invite also goes out to other interested classiccmpers. I'll also
publish an announcement shortly.

  Hey Guyz - not to squelch List traffic, nor appear to be a NetCop - but
d'ya think it might be possible to try and

  TRIM YER DAMN REPLY CASCADES????

  I mean, 152 lines of triple-posted reply threads, including three copies
of somebody's asinine sig... and I read all this, already, already,
already.

 Please be aware that some of us (me included) read the list via an ASCII
terminal emulator under a Unix shell account - and that more than one of
our Listmembers in Countries Other Than the US (remember them?) pay for
thier Internet access *By The Byte*... so this really pisses them off.

 Cheerz
