Recently, I have received quite a few private messages that just say  
"Info" (or similar), or are blank.  They often have an  attachment.  These are 
deleted without opening.   One  yesterday was from someone named Hill, but 
sometimes the sender's name is not  clear.
 
Please do not expect multi-tasking lacemakers to  remember everyone and 
their eMail addresses.  For personal letters  requesting help, and for all 
correspondence to Arachne, please try to think  about what Subject is most 
appropriate - what can be researched in the future in  old personal files and 
in 
Arachne's archives.
 
On another matter, please give us a clue as to whom you are, and from  
where.  Replies are sometimes customized for different geographic  areas in the 
world.   New technology seems to ignore the politeness of  just a few years 
ago, and all we get are "sent from my (device name)", or  something of the 
like advertising a company.  If you expect us to read a  note, please 
consider that we may do a bit of research for you.  We send  replies, and 
sometimes 
do not know if they were helpful.
 
Arachne is unique in that you will usually receive help from someone.   
But, don't expect us to "read between the lines" what specific help you  need, 
and what you already know and don't need us to repeat.
 
Thanks to all,
