Just a note to everyone in my email list about a possible shut down. If Excite @home shuts down its service due to the bankruptcy proceedings now underway I will have no internet and email service. The judge has given permission for the shut down, but negotiations are still under way to try to prevent that. The system could be shut off this weekend. So if the shut down occurs and you try to reach me I will no longer be able to receive your email. We have no high speed alternative for internet connection available in our area, so if the shut down occurs I have no idea how soon I will be able to have service again. Dennis D.
