Re: good bye

My first reply to this message appears to have been in error since I 
thought that John Gardner had apologized and Paul Prueitt had 
reconsidered this, but that appears not to have been the case. My 
misapprehension appears to have been caused by receiving replies to 
this post before I actually received this post, and such is the kind 
of cross traffic that occurs at times like this, as is this sad 
little chapter of our own here.

I think we could have benefitted from Paul's work and John's and that 
we will poorer for the lack.

Ciao,
Rex
