Actually, I still wonder why.  Do you have any reason to believe they 
rejected this for the right reasons?

It is now sent to the e-lang list.


-----------------------------------------------------------
Due to a bug (possibly at my ISP, but probably in Eudora 4.2.0.58), on 9/15
I lost 18 email messages.  If it's possible for you to check whether you
sent me something on that date, resending it would be great.  Otherwise,
please excuse my non-responsiveness to email you may have sent around that
time.  Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks.
