Just in case we end up further adrift than we're accustomed to, there will
be a section of our very own on PTN LIVE in short order. www.PTN.org was
recently moved to a new secure server which enabled the forum to be revived
after the hacker attack. I will post a notice when we are live.
Until then,
Rudy

The "Listowner Service Survey" was filled out on January 10, the day
they were scheduled for the first migration. Sharpshooter paid the
membership donation/fee a day or two later (and gave them a 20% tip for
good service, in advance of service). I have not heard back from the
ICORS people; one hopes that we are in the second wave of smaller
migration. I will attempt to communicate with ICORS again to verify that
they have connected the dots between my survey on behalf of B-P and
Sharpshooter's donation.
Fear not, popcorn tossers; we are on it. No one should be shouting
'fire' in the auditorium. You do not need to rush out into the lobby.
