Could someone please post the discussion that apparently appeared on Compu-
serve concerning Sextant's demise?  I would like to know the publisher's
explanation since I recently made a lengthy renewal and consider myself
as having been taken.  His explanation may prevent me from filing a com-
plaint with the Postal Service (which could have as a consequence his
not being able to do business in like manner again).
