Hi Alice and all:

Keep the faith. Jon and others are working on it. Please don't give up on
it yet - it is precisely the notes and sources that are so important. Jon
has sent me a copy that is supposedly designed just for PAF - the only
trouble is that my computer got "ornery" and interrupted the download
session, and when I tried to start over again, it insisted on picking it up
again where it left off. I haven't had the time to try it out yet, but will
in the next day or two. I am inherently suspicious about downloading for 7/8
minutes, interrupting the session, and coming back 15 minutes later and
picking up the process with "EXACTLY" the same place in the file.

If it doesn't work, I can try to download it again and see if I can't get it
without the interruption. I seem to have done something wierd to my computer
while running a virus check - it now tells me it can't find a "file device"
called "vshare.386" which is needed to run certain Windows programs - and it
is in there - I've found it with a search. Mac users need not comment!!!!

I am positive that it will be worth the pain and the wait.
