Seems like I haven't seen a post from Richard Heathfield in a long
time.
Since around Easter, IIRC.
One of his webpages he used to host is now dead. I hope nothing
bad has happened.
Well, it depends on your definition of "bad".
Basically, I'm in the middle of reorganising my Internet universe.
For a start, I'm designing and building a new Web site, which is
taking far longer than I'd like, but those with even a modicum of
taste will appreciate that my old site was never really designed; like
Topsy, it just grew.
Secondly, I am no longer using Powernet as my ISP (although I believe
that
http://users.powernet.co.uk/eton is still up at the moment). The
site to which you refer,
http://www.rjgh.co.uk, is indeed down at
present, although whether it is really dead, or merely pining for the
fjords, has yet to be determined. It may well be that that URL ends up
being the one I use for the new site, but I'm not sure yet.
Since I haven't yet decided on the best way to set up email, I have
been reluctant to post to Usenet. I happen to think that it is my
responsibility to provide in my articles an address where I really can
be contacted, and at present there is no such address (for general
usage, at least) that I check regularly.
Once I've sorted out my new site and email and stuff, no doubt I'll be
back. Until then, enjoy my absence.
(My apologies to any topic cops who think, probably rightly, that this
response is OT.)
