Guest guest Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Hi, All - Josh and I will be incommunicado for a bit - moving day is " tomomow, " as Josh would say. The computer is getting disconnected today and will, I hope, be all set up again in the new house on Friday 6/9. Wish us luck with the move!
