*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR FLAMES ***

To try and make a long story short, we at Tektronix, Clark County site, 
discovered that our postnews software was sending all of our postings to
one other Tektronix computer which then dumped all of the postings to
"junk".  This apparently has now been fixed and so after editing out most
of my postings, I reposted some of them.  What I did not realize was that
since my access to the other computer was a group access code, was that it
would be posted as "aegroup (Dennis Ward)" and not "wrd (Bill Dippert)" --
I know that was dumb but doesn't everyone deserve at least one mistake a 
year?  At any rate, there are many postings out in both net.micro.atari and
other places, that end up with my --Bill-- signature which look like Dennis
sent them and for which I apologize.

Messages may be sent to me at:
tektronix!tekigm2!wrd

Since this misdirections of messages has been going on for a least 6 months,
there may be other repostings by other individuals in similar fashions.  be
patient with us at Tek, please!

--Bill--
