Subject: GA-List news

We are still experiencing problems with our mailer here at NRL-AIC.
If you have not received V1N5, let me know via GA-LIST-REQUEST.

As if that wasn't enough, Murphy struck in the form of a disk crash,
the result of which was that we lost all incoming mail to GA-LIST
and GA-LIST-REQUEST between Sept. 12 and Sept. 30.  So, if you sent
something, you'll have to re-submit it.
