A moral imperative on Usenet? I don't guess I've ever sensed one of
those either - is it anything like steaming 40 ambience? <g>

I'll be flying in on the 8th and staying until the 8th of August--flying
into Bozeman and spending the week of the Western Clave on the Madison near
Three Dollar Bridge at Hart's. Is that anywhere near you guys? I'd love to
meet up and fish with you all for a few days.

well...somehow, this announcement of western 2004 failed to appear on my
computer until tonight...and then not until after i'd posted a sarcastic
note to you somewhere above. of course, i've just read a bit about the
box-cutter incidents on southwestern airlines, and i just finished a
trial involving a demented airline pilot...but, a year might allow me to
gather the courage to mount an airplane west again. lookin forward to
it... so, count me in. be sure to scout a few decent bars as well.
don't worry about the bowling alley, though.
