- LET me get this straight. He let the gold medal off the ribbon against
- which it was straining, and it ran under its own power to a member of
- the Unified Team?

- Try "dolan@nrlmry.navy.mil", "R"eply is guaranteed to fail, since my
- host machine shares unregistered a name registered to a machine at
- ucar.edu, as best I can determine. That, at least, is where all the
