RE: *** ADMIN: Topic and Tragedy

Michael, Domenico, and others,

A tragedy that can legitimately be called the worst day in American
history, perhaps behind that of Pearl Harbor, and especially where
civilians make up the majority of the victims, cannot be swept under the
rug.  It will be on the minds of anyone with even just a shred of
conscious thought for weeks and months to come.  It is only 10:20 in the
morning and already I am mentally exhausted.

I absolutely share your desire to be near and support.  While it is true
that MIDRANGE-L may be the easiest place to keep in touch with our
AS/400 colleagues around the world, it is NOT the best place.  So,
please, PLEASE, if you haven't already done so and you wish to continue
this vital discussion, sign up to subscribe to MIDRANGE-NONTECH now,
right now!   And move the discussion there.  Please.

I'm done posting this topic on MIDRANGE-L.  I have also posted this to
MIDRANGE-NONTECH, and if there are any further discussions on my posts
for this topic, regardless of where they appear, I will reply only at
MIDRANGE-NONTECH.
