Newbie cypheroids and cypherettes,

Tim May has pointed to _The Puzzle Palace_ by Bamberg several times here ^^^^^^^ and on the Extropians list. If like me you're a newbie, it's a quick, excellent read. Don't miss it. It'll give context for the quote, "gentlemen don't read each other's mail."

"My name is Bamford, _James_ Bamford."

ooops, Tim's right. I was listening to David Bromberg (urg?) while writing that post and it slipped out. Thanks, Tim. -- ................................ Jamie Dinkelacker Palo Alto CA Jamie@netcom.com 415.941.4782
