<p>
For those of you who've noticed this ran late, sorry 'bout that!  I had
a DSL outage ... in fact, if it had just plain <em>died</em> it might 
have been easier, since I would have <em>known</em> to reach for a 
backup plan.
</p>
<p>
But, things are all better now.  Boy have I got a new appreciation for the 
plight of those stuck behind a slow dialup line.  Ouchie.  Now we have a
brand new router <em>and</em> a freshly repaired external DSL drop.
</p>
<p>
Okay, enough of that.  I want to give a big hand of appluase for the 
new, improved Answer Gang.  The Gang deserves a giant
standing ovation is that over 400 slices of mail passed through nthe box
this month.  That's about twice as many as the month before... and a lot of
people got answers <IMG SRC="../gx/dennis/smily.gif" ALT=";)"
	                height="24" width="20" align="middle">
</p>
<p>
As always I remind you that we can't guarantee that you'll get one...
and nowadays I can't even manage to publish all the good ones.  I stopped
pubbing the short-and-sweet FAQs a few issues ago. 
</p>
<p>
We have some summary 
	<a href="tag/bios.html">bios</a>.  Not everyone --
	some of us are shy -- but now you can know a few of the Gang a
	bit better.  
</p>
<p>
Last but not least, there's a big thanks to my Dad in there.  Enjoy!
