more tallented people from our ranks.

I am getting more and more people come to me for help with II's and IIGS's as
the schools here in Australia shed finally there old II's and IIGS's. I am
ordering 4 Focus hard drives for them at the moment. If we lose too much
knowledge from the pool that exist we will die as a group. It is only the
internet that has enabled us to continue to exist.

Becasue we are small in number without the internet to communicate, the II
comunity would have died long ago.  Let us just agree to disagree. Please
pretty please. If we do not, we are like an out of ballance flywheel, and we
will tear ourselves to pieces. We are an endangered species. In Australia we
are unable to access Delphi and AOL so any reports there are not seen by a
lot of Apple II users.

Thanks for the posting, David.  We needed a peace keeper right about now.  I
sometimes think that the big wheels don't realize how scary their yelling is to
those of us on the sidelines.
