- It is a FREE service that I undertook to keep the BWP's in touch during

- ingrates, however and choose to ridicule the limitations of my little
- mailer, which is overtasked during such exigencies. I may have to
- discontinue the E.L.S. entirely, cause the last round of messages almost
- brought it to its knees this morning when someone bounced 972 times,
- jamming the net manager's account and rendering the mailer impossible to
- log into. If I ever get my mythical unix box, I may make the E.L.S. a
- publicly available feature, until then, eleetness rules.
