While Alex's piece was a much-needed dose of humor, here's some of the 
tedious reality.

It's pretty easy, when switching to a new and complex mail client (like 
Outlook), not to know that you have to right-click on the address of the 
list when you're replying, select Properties and deselect "Always send to 
this recipient in Exchange Rich Text Format" which is inexplicably on by 
default - it's only when you see with horror that half the digest is 
uuencoded junk that you do (or don't) figure it out.

xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx remarks:

<I find the releases on ernst to be quite different than the
comcept remixes.  The releases on ernst are more minimal...>

More minimal than Concept 1 96:VR must be getting down pretty low on the 
scale of mimimalism!

Perhaps anyone who is interested in the New York CR/BC show has already 
figured out that you won't be able to decide to go at the last minute - 400 
tickets, probably only available through advance sales and they won't 
reveal the location until after 7 pm the night of the show - laerm and 
other Philadelphians, getting your tickets at 611?

Cheers,
Bob
