I got kicked off the list last night again when I tried to send two e-mails
within about ten minutes of each other. the first one went through, but the
second one for some reason kicked me off.
If there were any posts after the one I sent last night, I did not get them.
Below is a copy of the second one I sent last night. From now on I will
only send one, maybe that will help.
