It has come to my attention that I owe all of you an apology. . .

Partly due to my own incompetence, and partly to certain idiosyncratic
behaviors of my MAIL utility, you have all been subjected to a gross and
unnecessary inconvenience.

When I posted my message requesting information about the Coleco ADAM, it
was my intention to post it to a wide audience -- both to insure complete
coverage, and to attract attention.

What happened, however, was orders of magnitude greater than my intentions.
The number of newsgroups affected, as well as the manner of distribution,
was grossly inappropriate -- without lengthy explanations, I realize my
mistake, and apologize for the monumental inconvenience which I know it
has caused you all.

I shall now subscribe to net.flame, and blythely await the just retribution
which is in store for me.


Contritely,

 Kevin Crean
