Fw: The Explorigator

[K3 V iN Cummiskey]

hey doctrine ive been thinking of you now and a then, i put the worm hole screen saver on my cumputer and im most delighted, i feel so at home in viewing the movement and colors and in conjunction w/certain of my Pandora selections well i willnt say im in heaven but you get my drift. I hole heartedly recommend it to you, my fellow man of worms. And I took a peak at your presentation but Im afraid to suggest that most of our viewership (pynwasters) probably cant see those pages even w/their bifocals in place.  But nice selection all the same and ill preview more closly during evening  hours of leisure (really every hr. is of leisure, but my choice of words sounds more professional).
