As alluded to in an earlier mailing to some people, I warned about 
spectrix leaving the net.  Now I can broadcast this and give a few 
more details:

	1) Spectrix has decided to cease to exist, and has sold the
	   useable pieces ("businesses", not "boards").
	2) Spectrix is *not* going bankrupt.  Actually, the investors
	   got bored.
	3) Spectrix Field Support and Maintenance will be resurrected
	   by some other company.  However, nobody's yet told *us* who 
	   is picking up the contracts.
	4) Spectrix will cease to exist UUCP-wise sometime Thursday
	   June 30th.
	5) I'm not one of the "useable pieces" ;-)  Nor are most of
	   the other people here - we've been terminated as of June 30.

	   However, most of the "unuseable pieces" will be resurrecting 
	   *themselves* at a new location July 4th - independence day.
	   [Including myself]
	   
	   However, net access to the new system will probably lag by 
	   a couple of weeks. 

Mail for me can be addressed to clewis@lsuc after June 30th until I
can the new system all linked up.
