When ya'll started going over things with a magnifying glass and filling
people's netmail folders with queries, I began to get several netmail
updates from various regions, with comments about Bobby Queen and ya'll's
ERN committee being a bunch of [expletive, deleted] annoying twirps.

I also got the last bugs out of a few programs I'd been working on (in what
little spare time I could find) for months. I now have several bits of custom
software to do a number of various items, one of which isn't actually being
used yet and may never be, since the major mail movers who actually use
ROUTELST.xxx don't see any valid reason for it.

The proceedures to check that any net or node that is a part of a published
route does, indeed, still exists might have been prompted in part by ya'll's
bitchin', but I don't use ya'll's ERNROUTE.xxx as a source for data to go
into the list I publish.

(But of course, ya'll will say I'm lying about all this, because it suits
ya'll's egos to think so.)

Have a whatever.....
