I must have missed something ... what's all this fuss about David Boots? -- I found that a person by that name has a Web-site [see below] with some apparently interesting PD-related writings. http://www.sonic.net/~bootst3k/ I must have missed something ... what's all this fuss that caused Janet to be booed [yes, that's the intended spelling!] off the list? She's one of the most valuable contributors. It's unkind, inconsiderate, and downright rude when some list-members publicly question JP's mental state, or express thanks for her leaving the list. I hope Janet peeks at the list, sees that some of us are dismayed by the way she was treated, and rejoins our discussions. Ben Winter 66/66/64
