X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) I am back from playing Rambo. Unfortunately, the elk won the battle. Is there going to be a meeting tomorrow? If so, where and when. Brian -----Original Message----- From: owner-antera, cryptofreak dot org [mailto:owner-antera, cryptofreak dot org]On Behalf Of Perry and Lorae Merritt Sent: Sunday, October 28, 2001 4:15 PM To: antera, cryptofreak dot org Subject: Re: Arch doc (again) I read through the doc.
