Just received a phone call from Barb Mallut, who is experiencing communications problems with her ISP, which should remain nameless. In the past she has had extended spells of not being able to receive mail. This time she can't send it - and what can be more frustrating than to compose a message and find it back in your own mailbox with a rejection message ten minutes later? Barb notes that one of the messages concerned a good ferry for Gina in Ohio. You'd think there would be one across Lake Erie from Cleveland to Port Stanley, Ontario - but my map doesn't show it. Barb says that there are a bunch of other messages also lined up - but having paid for fifteen minutes of sitting on hold, long distance, not an 800 number yesterday, and getting no results, she's a bit reticent to try it again today. So to those of you awaiting a reply from Barb, either on the list or private, patience. She'll get through eventually.
