	I think the subject pretty accurately summarizes this message.

	Well, here goes anyway:

	Yeah, I know, I know.  I'd *like* to be able to do this.
Unfortunately, I often don't know the ^&@!#%&$ thing is broken until
way too late myself.

	For example... I really shouldn't know the digest is broken
until Monday morning.  I just happened to show up at work late Sunday
night and noticed nothing had been sent out since Friday.  (No, I
don't like to call in from home.  I see computer screens much too much
already. :) Hmm, a problem.  Ok, manually kick the digest in the butt,
then figure out what killed it *this* time.  Feh.

	(Still working on that last part, too.  This crash is pretty weird.)

	Hey, look, it's me!

	Yeah, right.  I obviously wrote that in a rare optimistic
mood.  I'm normally a devout cynic... like now.

	Until I get the latest bug worked out of the system, I'll try
to manually send the digest out each night so you folks will have
something interesting in your mailboxes each morning (or whenever,
depending on what part of the globe you're sitting on).  No guesses on
a fix-time, though.

	Keep mailing in, though.  Eventually you'll see your post again.

	:-)   (Or should it be :-/ ?)
