Not at all.  But I haven't received ANYTHING from you in my yahoo
mailbox.

I'm guessing that you wrote to my earthlink mailbox, which I hardly
every check, but which I will check now.

If I find your email in my earthlink mailbox, I will respond.

But my sig is supposed to make clear my overwhelming preference that
people correspond to me through my YAHOO mailbox.

My reasoning is, that ISP's come and go but that yahoo is forever;
that's why I prefer to privately correspond through yahoo.

Logical positivism, dominant in American and

establishing the impossibility of knowing any-

Condemned", the neo-positivist pedant reduces
himself to a mosquito, able to wound, nearly
invulnerable to counter-assault - but only an
insect, not a man).
