Fw: failure notice

[Michael Bailey]

waste.orf -
Any relation to Carl Orff?  (just an attempt at levity, I'm leaving off
drollery
in hopes your headache will abate)

Say, Kevin, which is your favorite Pynchon book?
I'm partial to Vineland myself, though I like them all.

Also, and no offense, but you seem to have a mail program that
has added html mess to some of your contributions, though not all of them.

I like to toggle Gmail over to plain text for w.a.s.t.e. postings,
and most mail programs do have such an option;
since at least one of our listers uses a mail-to-voice interface because of
visual difficulty -
"good manners don't cost nothing"
(as a background voice says near the end of Pink Floyd's song "Money"
on  _Dark Side of the Moon_)

It also makes browsing the archives more pleasant for all and sun-dried
tomatoes
(that was just silliness, or vestigial motion toward Cockney rhyming slang)
