>>I regret to inform you guys that Eldred Pickett passed away this
> Good grief - I have *another* stalker?  
> Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated...

Still, I've rarely been so relieved to see a Usenet posting answered so
promptly.

Stick around Eldred  ;)

Regards, Rudy

(When I was in college and stepped into the classroom on the first day
of third year, people looked at me rather funny. When I asked 'why' I
was told they'd read someone with the same name as me was reported to
have died!)

Thanks Pete!

Thanks to my painkiller buddies, I am doing pretty well :).

Just sore as hell right now - I needed a break, just didn't plan for it to
be like this :)..

Thanks,

You're a celebrity!

You're not getting off this planet until you go to one of the IICC LAN

Next summer, hopefully.  Depends on what ELSE happens by then.  If I don't find
