Grrr.  Sorry, that was supposed to read "is NOW there".

Ah, I see.  I've had problems posting to Usenet and to this list because
my DNS host went down (and for some reason the root servers lost the

OK, thanks.  I'll have to send cash if I'm doing it that way, unless I
can get a counter cheque tomorrow.
