Though nobody forget that this will be academic if we can't get permission to do it. It seems to be the prevailing mood on the list that we _do_ need to get permission before we do it, so any more dissenters should probably speak up now before I write the Letter To Sandra. :-) Matt. -- M a t t S a u n d e r s http://www.yoyo.org/matts/ 0973 479515 -- | T H E P R E S S G A N G M A I L I N G L I S T | | | | By default, replies will go back to this list, not to | | the author of the message you're replying to. | | | | To unsubscribe from this list, mail the word | | "unsubscribe" to "pressgang-request@yoyo.org". | |
