Happy Monday Everyone,

Well, I am back from AWOL!! Sorry about hiding out for
the past few days. I just could not get things
organized enough to get out even a short gram. I
missed chat for several days too.

There sure is a lot to discuss too! Will hardly get
started here I am sure. Oh well.

First we have to do a little administrative work. I
received two complaints last week about some vulgarity
on chat. I read the log file and agree, but this is a
difficult matter to deal with. Anyway, Wiz and I
discussed it and he came up with a partial technical
sollution. Chat will no longer transmit messages with
the worst words. Certainly a person can use some
initiative to get around this, but I hope that this
little check will make a person think better of it.

Having said that there are some problems. Wiz claims
to not know all of the bad words! When we talked about
the "F" word, I reported that many collectors at
Memphis think that the "F" word is "foreign"! Anyway,
we fixed that and it is exclued (not foreign). Wiz,
last night I learned that I cannot use the word glass
as in mnanifying glass (guess I could say lens or
device), but also could not use pass to mean decline
so there is some more work needed. Wiz, please remove
ass from the banned list unless the software can be
improved to cover entire words. Probably there are
some other problems too.

I had lots of research items to discuss too, but not
sure that I can remember them. Darn those senior
moments. Oh yes, Kid turned 39 yesterday!
Congratulations Kid, watch out Larry.

Kevin Maloy bought what looks to be a very interesting
MPC document on ebay. Kevin, have you received it yet?
We will be delighted to have some comments about it
here. We would also be delighted to publish the text
here in the gram or graphically at pmw. I certainly am
interested to learn what is says!

Wiz is working on some new pmw features. Send your
classified advertisements to
marcus@papermoneyworld.com and come to chat tonight.
Do you need any more instructions?

Oh yes, per a discussion this morning with another
collector. Please try the calendar at pmw. It has lots
of information and we need feedback as we try to
expand its use.

Only 288 days till MPC Fest II.

Ok, I will stop for now.

Fred
