alga,

Ah, my mistake--which is why I will henceforth stick to my guns and
not allow =any= first train questioneers until the mad dash in real time
at the last second as determined by myself and my whim.

What the hey--it is Wednesday already.  And I wanna send it out on
Friday morning.  Okay, we'll throw open the cattle car doors for
Thursday, 26 Jun 1997, GMT.  And the first one at 00:02:42 is alga,
with her question re: what she just said.

OKAY everybody, only eight (8) more seats left on this train!  And
only 23 odd hours left to fill 'em!

=mantis=

P.S. I guess this means Wesley Parsons might not make it in time, re:
his automated reply to alga's message.
