Warning: This is a long message, but I didn't know how else to do this. What follows is a digest that was forwarded to me by one of my subscribers. As you can see, there are many "empty" posts. As far as I know, no one else on the list is having this problem--at least I haven't heard from anyone else. Any idea what might be going on here?
