News-Bits NOTICE: We sincerely apologize for the multiple copies you received of the latest News-Bits release due to a computer glitch. It's never our intention to dispatch more than one copy of our newsletter at a time. After the original text was completed and dropped into a specially designed "dispatch form," the SEND button was hit. A message-box appeared on the monitor stating that for various reasons, the message was not acceptable and/or could not be sent. As there is no immediate way to see whether the email actually "worked," I waited a few minutes and tried again. Again, the same message appeared. On the third try, the message was accepted and sent. To my surprise, I received three copies, as did you. ======== ======== ========= As the system is set up, we cannot send two different News-Bits releases within the same clock day---so if you ever receive multiple copies of our newsletter minutes apart, realize that a computer glitch occurred. Accordingly, delete all but one, as all will be the same. Those who have been with us for a long time might recall that three or four years ago, six copies of the same message were received one after the other. It hasn't happened since then. Again, we apologize for the incident. GMM IX |
