        From: Willard McCarty 
        Subject: postings that never make it

I am sorry to report that postings from some members of Humanist never
get to their proper destination but are hijacked somewhere along the 
way by rogue code. This is a problem has been troubling us for some 
time. My colleague who is in charge of the software has been looking 
into it. Once again I find myself having to swear a great oath that
I never censor messages, at least not without telling the sender and
encouraging him or her to recast in a more agreeable form. But such
incidents are very rare -- perhaps as many as a dozen in the past 30+
years, and a majority of these in the first year, when 'netiquette' had
not yet been coined.

Anyone who finds him- or herself suffering from these misdeeds of code
is welcome to send the intended posting directly to me.

All the best.

Yours,
WM
