*** Quoting Roy Witt from a message to Carol Shenkenberger ***


 CS>> No, I said after I got back, July/Aug.

 RW>> No, you said at the end of June...you got back a couple of weeks
 RW>> ago.

 CS> I've been in workups equal to being at sea, until 1JUL.

RW> You had time to do a lot of running around, cooking for the gang, etc.
RW> only takes a second to send a 'drop zone six' message to Malcom.

Roy, there is much more to it than that.  Right now though, I'm waiting for
¨answers from Malcolm and if they want to drop me in the net I connect to
best ¨(is in south part of Australia) or the northern one that nominally
will own ¨'Asia and Asian Pacific' but which has us have to do a few
shennanigans for ¨connections.  Kinda up to the RC's and Malcolm there to
decide and I have to ¨wait on them.

Once that is settled, we enter a dual listing timeframe and the few moving
over ¨with me will get (hopefully) at least 2 weeks to adapt before we drop
Z6 or ¨reduce it to a placeholder segment.

 CS> I prefer a nodelisting.

RW> Since geographics makes no difference these days, ask any ZC for a ZIN

Oh I can easily get a nodenumber elsewhere just for myself.  No one would
be ¨hard put on if I cropped up in 1:140 net and the funny thing is I often
look ¨like a local dial from his end due to the shennanigans of DSN
witchery.  Since ¨my legal residence is in Virginia Beach, we almost didnt
move me at all to a Z6 ¨listing in those early days and 1:275 would be
'legal with precidents for ¨Military who move about alot but own a home
there and plan to return'.  Ward ¨too said he'd add me in if I needed it
being a bit of a special case and ¨Russell I am sure would be happy to have
me.  Renato's probably the only one ¨who'd feel funny about it if I tried
to get him to list me ;-)
