Theos-Talk Archives (March 2006 Message tt00828)

Bill -- I appreciate knowing the background of your discovery of the 
IP addresses.  I discussed the IP situation for about 18 hours.  
Carlos subsequently caught sight of the issue the next day and 
revived it by asking about it.

I always post directly on Yahoo's server, because I use several 
different computers.  It looks like Daniel Caldwell may have been 
doing the same thing.

Thar ya go!
