Gee, I didn't know that they were that popular to have drawn so many
requests for back issues. I hope that the new Galileo-whatever it's
going to be called will be as popular. Maybe I oughtta bundle it with
Atrek 5.0 :-).

By the way, many gracias to all who entered into my "name Mike Smithwick's
Product Contest". The official Contest Name Selection committee will 
be in conclave on Monday nite or so. And after the warm-up excersises
and ritual opening meal of pizza and beer we oughtta be tanked enough
to choose an appropriate name for the thing. 

I received over 100 email responses, many with over a half-dozen 
names (Laurn Brown-where was your entry, hmmmm?). I also got a 
neat company name in the deal as well. There were too many responses
to send email thanks to everyone without costing Uncle Sam more money 
than the B-2 ignition switch. . .

Now, if all of you guys and gals who entered would buy the product,
I'd really be in business :-).
