Good.  It's not necessary to quote all of the message being replied
to, as some people here keep doing.  Doing so only adds clutter, and
leads to readers skipping over text, possibly missing important stuff.

Fixed in capc05/index.htm.  I also updated dischair.htm, discfut.htm,
disclist.htm, and disclist80.htm, on both the main and mirror sites.

Please tell me if I've missed any files.  With at least 2009 publicly
accessible files on our website, it's easy to lose track.

(I got that count with the Unix command
grep -h \ 200\  ~/wsfa/logs/ex03*.log | cut -f 8 -d \  | sort | uniq | wc
on my home machine to see how many unique filenames got hits on our
website so far this year.  Don't try this with Windows.)

Tsk, tsk.  You mean orally, not verbally.  Back to editor school
with you.

I'm glad to hear you're feeling better.  See you on third Friday.
(Which will be at the Ginters', as usual.)
