Re: Introducing myself prior to contribution

Benjamin,

  Good to hear form you.  You sound like a very reasonable individual.
I look forward to listening and reading any ideas you may have.  I am
sure others on this list will also.  I would advise that there are
some on these lists that have their minds already made up, so be
prepaired for some personal attacks from them.  I am very sorry to
tell you this, but thought it would only be prudent to do so.  In fact,
You have already recieved an E-mail for one of those individuals
complaining
about posting to multipul lists.  Need I say more?
