I've received mail from many of you saying you did not receive the advertising issue. The issue went out on Monday, and I know it was at least partly distributed due to acknowledgements and a couple of bounces, but so many of you didn't get it, that there must have been a problem. Will try to track it down. I By the way, use the same list for the ad issue as for the FML -- up to the minute -- and add a few names of non-subscribers who have requested it. Anyhow, if you didn't receive it, email me, or, better yet, send mail to [log in to unmask] with the single line of text in the body of the mail of: GET FERRETAD 6 On another topic, this FML issue was a difficult one for me to edit. There were a few posts about the "HIV in animals" discussion that were pretty hostile - so much so that I felt I had to remove them. I'll contact the people directly when I have a few minutes, but perhaps there has been enough discussion that there's no need to get into it further. The topic is very appropriate where ferrets are involved, but there's only so many ways to say exactly the same thing! Thanks, Bill [Posted in FML issue 1830]
