Hi, Alexander!  Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:

AK>  as I see now, the gate news.dewy.ru has eaten my 
AK>  messages for some time 


           Hmm... I wondered what was going on there.



AK>  Tommi's gate is working well. 

  
           It seems I can read messages sent via Tommi's gate, as your test message was, but whatever you sent from your point address disappeared into oblivion after March 31st AFAIC.



AK>  BTW, have you seen my messages about barrels of apples 
AK>  and Cinderella's ashes?  ;-)

   
           No, but they sound quite intriguing.  Can you repost them?
   
           I replied to you on April 4th explaining why I generally use the basic eight parts of speech although they require a bit of "shoehorning" at times.  Hearing no response, I began to wonder if asking me to explain such matters was, to younger folks, like asking one's parents for help with long division.  But years ago we often had glitches between Here & There... so I reminded myself not to take it personally.  And as time went by I noticed a dearth of mail from you & others I know in a number of echomail areas.  :-Q
