[Shotimes] Caught a Thief in Action

[bobsteig@att.net]

Al,
Mea Culpa, my bad.
I sort of speed read the post at work and got real worried 
for you in a hurry and made my reply accordingly. After I 
read the next few mailings I realized my mistake but hadn't 
had the chance to make my amends as my laptop's H/D is 
about to blow out and I'm frantically data dumping. 
I'll be ordering some parts soon ($25 min, I know) to make up ;-}

Best, Bob (BB-NYC '89)
