Dear all--

One of our members, Guy Cox, has attempted to post to the List but for
reasons that aren't clear, the system isn't sending him confirmation
requests and his posts aren't appearing.  I'm posting the following on
his behalf. --Please email me directly if the List hasn't accepted your
posts or if you have not received confirmation requests.

My apologies for the inconvenience!  We're trying to determine find
where the problem lies.

Martin Wessendorf
List Manager
