"few months'"! Sigh - All that money/time I saved was sucked up by:

  1. 9 months of unemployment last year.
  2. A house/barn/farm in need of 30 years of repairs.
  3. An unexpected surgery.

At least I had some time to prepare for the conversion to mailman. I wasn't 
prepared for problems after the conversion. (Another sigh.)

What an excellent idea! Are there any volunteers? (If so, please reply to the 
gnhlug-org list!)
