Thanks, Jim O., for rushing to my defense.  However, in this case its my own
fault.  I made arrangements for uploads of the information to the Atari BBS,
to CIS, and to BIX, while personally uploading it (from my hotel room) to
GEnie.  I forgot about making arrangements for Usenet.  Since I had no net
access from Vegas, I had no recourse.  You are a resourceful group, and
before long someone posted the notices anyway.

Jim is right in saying that we can't post the info before the official
release time.  Since Antic was sworn to secrecy and spilled the beans a day
early anyway, count on them not having the info in time to do so in the
future.  At any rate, I will be sure to remember about y'all for the next
set of earth-shattering news.
