Tokyo, actually. But I'm back now, though a bit jet-lagged. I'm eating eggs
for breakfast again, instead of rice and miso soup.
When the other Jonathan, Jonathan Magid of SunSITE, was working to bring
the servers up again over the weekend, he may well have sent out multiple
copies of digests to make sure they didn't get lost, or some status bit
might have been awry while the server went up and down.
Is anybody *regulary* getting two copies of the digest? If so, please
contact me.

When two copies are sent to B-Greek, the Lyris software is bright enough to
notice and reject the second copy of the post. Cool, eh? At least, this has
worked for me, however...

I'm surprised. That should have been blocked. Hmmm....
