Hello PLUG !

Several reasons: NAV isn't perfect; or I could screw up. Also, the
entire contents of PLUG Digest #1106 went to bit doom. Same
for most of PLUG Digest #1113, which now consists of 98%
virus (the text version, at any rate) since I couldn't resist the
temptation to learn something about the source.  It's in Message
No.1 AFAIKT. And I never heard a peep from the list admin to
whom I first addressed my concern. It's getting downright
discourteous. And I have to interact with NAV when I should be
learning when it's time to try Linux.
