My e-mail service aggressively filters spam, so I don't mind listing my address here: <larry@doolittle.boa.org> If you catch me on-line, I can sometimes respond in minutes. At worst, I should get back to you in 48 hrs. Yes, I have a day job and a family, so think before mailing. Free software gives you the power to figure it out for yourself!
