Doug's sure right on the first point--the only reason my browsing
file contains only 1163 past messages is that it overloads past 1200.
Anyway, I'm only on one net, PEN-L (for reason why, see previous
statement). So if everybody here didn't get my post on the election,
something may indeed be haywire.
NB: Note, though, that my election comments were at the end on a
post on a different subject, "Atlas plugged". So people may have
either blipped the election comments entirely or only scanned the
first part of the message.
