My machine belongs to the government, not me, so I cannot do what
you ask.

I don't remember if I sent the following to you, so here it is:

Also I once read somewhere that on alt.bbs and comp.misc, a periodic
posting of access sites appears under the title "Nixpub Posting",
but it seems to have expired at my site. Keep an eye on it.


PS. I'd send this email but I don't know how with an address
like that, and I lost the damn mail header, oh well...
