Dear
Mr. Leman,
I am sorry
you catched
the train
so late. I
refer you
to the
summary of
the
question I
placed on
this list
under the
Re: New SIL
Alias: WRAP
UP.
Without
trying to
be
impolite,
your
message
comes today
as
yesterday's
newspaper. It
can hardly
contribute
to the
issue now.
Sincerely,
J. Diego
Quesada
