	I would hate to be accused of being the originator of rumors concerning
the financial health (presumably, ill) of Atari.  In retrospect, the question
in my mind about Atari's finances, generated by a cable TV program that I now
believe was over 2 years old, should have remained where it began: in my mind,
and NOT on this net.  I could, and should, have brought up this question via a
medium that does not get such wide dissemination.  I am now confident that the
cable TV show was discussing the state of affairs of Atari in pre-Tramiel,
pre-ST days when they were still owned by Warner Communications (and, AT
THAT TIME, in BIG financial trouble).  End of rumor.
	New rumor: who is porting NASTRAN to the ST?
