Congrats John. You have long been a great advocate for issues that come up on this forum, and trying to make sure that the right folks within IBM see it, and help if they can. Enjoy retirement!

For the curious, I started on a Wednesday, 1 June 1977, so it will be 41 years, 6 months since I started as a CE in the local Poughkeepsie branch office. It's time to shed the daily stress, devote more time to my hobbies (diving, amateur radio, metalworking, cycling), and find a place in the County that can use an active volunteer for however many hours I feel like working (if any). I won't be able to get notes on my IBM e-mail address after about noon Friday. I also won't get phone messages after that time at my work phone number, because they arrive as e-mail attachments. Hanging out here has been quite instructive and usually fun (smile), so: Thanks, folks. All the best, everyone. -- John Eells IBM Poughkeepsie ee...@us.ibm.com (for a couple more days) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
