The illustrious Mr. Walsh is attempting to engage me in conversation on other discussion lists. Just wanted to bring it to everyone's attention. Officially Mr. Walsh has promissed he would never interact with me in email and I feel this attemp by Walsh is another clear example the poor can't keep a promise, even if that promise is to himself. Wals, it's time to take out the tool kit and apply a generous helping of grease. Regards Joe ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 23:11:55 -0800 (PST) From: William X.
