[atlantaprog] Re: atlantaprog Digest V1 #5


Hey Allen-

Great to see things are going well on many fronts.  If I can offer any 
assistance, you know where to contact me at.

Is there a way to get a daily digest of emails?  Our box has a limit and 
getting each of these individually is not a particularly good way for us to 
receive them.  Any suggestions? This is why I thought a site that we could 
visit with a message board would be better.  Is there a way to do that??? 
And just turn the daily/individual emails off??

<<Oh, man, you wanna come up with a better name or a better definition of 
"prog"?>>

Let's not even open that can of worms, ok? ;-)  We can be all inclusive 
without dissecting it I think.
