	- help !  i can't've paid for using ka9q216d either, then - 
	i was originally got running on-line by friends already with
	demon, who will have put whatever was current then on i-m-t...

	- i read the text files that came with it, but made very little 
	sense of them at the time; i noted en passant that there would 
	be a charge of ukL 10.00 collected by demon for the author, if
	i went on using it - but i was rather too busy trying to work
	out what ftp was, and how - and why - to do it, why my (then 386 
	tinypcclone) kept crashing, et sim., to register that demon would
	need _telling_ i was still using it - or, the ukL 10.00 wouldn't
	eventually be taken (after however-long-counted-as-"still-using-
	it" from my oxfam-affinity-credit-card-account) together with that
	month's sub, automatically...

	- der, a) i'm a twit; my cheque's in the post; b) mightn't it be 
	worth while reminding demon customers from time to time - in the
	magazine ? - that the ukL 10.00 for ka9q/dis216d is something that
	we need to send, rather than can wait for demon to charge, or bill
	us, for; and c) possibly, there're quite a lot more people are using
	ka9q/dis216d than the 10% demon think...?

	- love, ppint.
