[Note from Moderator: several list-members have noted that spurious messages have portrayed them falsely as sender. We all hope that the current internet mess will be resolved. Patience may be necessary. In the meantime, Bill's message indicates a probably non-unique situation that we should also all be aware of. best wishes, Bob] Dear friends, In case you have not received an answer to any message you may have sent to me during the last few weeks of the virus attack, please send your message again. I have the impression that some genuine messages may have been lost along with the hundreds of spurious ones. Bill Lawvere ************************************************************ F.
