Hi everybody:

I'm forwarding Wolfgang's message FYI.....

Obviously, we had a real problem with my message about the court case
against the FCC....  Will get it straightened out.  Thanks to all ofyou
who let me know....  I think it must have been a virus, but evidence
now seems to suggest it was on Libby's computer (or in her message).
She and I have talked on the phone.  She lost ALL of her messages.....

Anyway, the info is generally out there.  CWA (communication Workers
of America) and the Washington State-California EMF activists are
going after the FCC!!!  Yippee!!!!!!

Cheerio....

Hi Roy 

your last message(s) disappeared on my system 

I read them and they had a tail of what seemed
like some word processor code on both  (!)
so I thought maybe your computer got a virus
 or your RAM got jolted  -
(this requires reset /reboot to work properly again) 
whatever such thing can happen.

However  when I closed my new mail window 
the messages disappeared instead of being transfered into the keep  
folder. This happened only once before but also with an emfguru email 
 (I use Pegasus mail)

It could be that the listserver program has a bug 
or the mailer/server has a task switching problem
this could account for the tail data in the mail.

But maybe it is already a direct attack on the EMF activists
- for myself I am not that paranoid yet - it looks more  like your 
computer (or server) is having a flue.........

Don't write your e-mail online -  then this should be easily 
disinguished were the "interaction" happens.

A simple interference can come from your winsock
if it times out while you are writing  some mail programs may send 
 mail in queue  before the application closes the line. 

But to give you more hints I need to know what programs
 you are using to go online and to compose your e-mail +++++

If you need more details  - let me know -
I don't hack (anymore) 
- but  "compute" since 1969 (math, physics-EE) and do computer 
consulting  as a side line. Feel free to ask any  questions -  if I 
can help you .............

Greetings 
Wolfgang
