RE: News/400's ClubTech section

I liked the "Al Barsa" book review thread.  I've sent a reasonably polite
e-mail to AS400 Network(News400) saying so.  The thing that worries me is
the fear I may be far enough out of the mainstream that I don't realize that
most normal people would prefer not to associate with me and that enjoying
the "Al Barsa" thread is really a symptom of a personality disorder.<g>
