[NTLK] Hello - returning to list & MP 2000 internet question

[Lloyd A. Conway]

     Thank you, Tony, for your help here.  BTW, I thought of you, even 
though we've never met, when I learned of the earthquake.  I hope that 
you and yours came through that well as may be expected, and I 
appreciate your writing from what must still be a challenging environment.
Regards,
-Lloyd
