    Richard Caldwell and others warned us that the net was
hiccuping lately
and that not everybody got our last post. I would have had this
sooner but I
was out of town, anyway here's an edited post:

    Jeff Medkeff called Kevin on July 15 and reports that work on
their
latest issue seems to be progressing but that Kevin _is_ somewhat
discouraged
with the response to LSL.

    We are providing discounts to anyone who is a member of any KB
fan club or
who subscribes to any KB newsletter.

    _That_ was a false alarm. We meant for it to be out but there
was a
problem at the distributor's, but this time it is well and truly
out, as you all know.

    The post that I am quoting back actually opened with this:

>   A grab bag of stuff from AATHP:

     Chris has told someone we are in touch with that he has been
informed that AATHP will be providing evidence of the origin of our
con message. We would like to state that we made no such promise to
Chris, nor to anybody else who might pass it along to him. We don't
know who told Chris this, but it wasn't us.
     Chris' copy of Little Light was mailed today without the
promised letter.
