You are apparently not subscribed to this list and have not requested
to have a Cc:. There are two responses to your mail at present and they
do not appear in your inbox by magic. What arrangements have you made
to read them and respond?

This message will not be sent again nor will you receive more personal
posts from me prompting a reply.
