To all:

With the impending changing of my ISP service, this is a good time to
cut free of the net for awhile. Looking around the house, I see much
needs done. Toilets need new valves, as do sinks, light fixtures need
wiring and installation.  I have a 1904 Edwardian to refurbish. My
woodshop is still in storage. The van and truck need a bit of
maintanance, the Westy needs a lot of attention to get it on the road.

I wanted to post and say goodbye. I have made a lot of aquaintences on
the list. Some of you I will miss the fact you iked my humor. I see a
lot of good people out there, helping others, discussing plans, setting
things up. Many have come and gone, I 'spect it's my turn now.

Most thanks go to Karl Wolz, Yoshi, Bulley (if he ever returns from
urban planning in N. Carolina), Phaedra (if she ever returns from the
killer trucks of Old Mexico), and Ron Bloomquist (hope you are still
feeling good buddy, and I have never met someone with as much off the
wall inspired energy as you have).

Best of luck to all the rest of you. The invite still holds... If you
are near San Jose, CA, you are invited for good coffee, good beer, and a
lot of war stories.

My e-mail address will be robot_works@hotmail.com. It will still be
checked everyday 'cept weekends.

I don't know what I am going to do at work without news group stuff to
read... perhaps make robots go roundee-round?

Take care,
