AIM : Euty55 Yahoo : Pressmanslim You can also e-mail me. But the fact of the matter is that I rarely have any of the IM services running and I’m perfectly awful at answering e-mail, so take my communication skills with a grain of salt. ---

On AIM: **TerminalGate** (It’s a Jack Logan song.) Feel free to drop a line, but I’m usually at work when I’m logged on. This doesn’t mean I’m usually _busy_, just that I might occasionally be actually doing something and not have time to chat. ---

If anyone is interested, I’m on AIM as “[jkusters@mac.com](mailto:jkusters@mac.com)” (Yes, including the @mac.com part). I’m only on AIM when I’m home and not working. Mentioning SDMB would be helpful, otherwise I’ll be expecting you to ask for information that will get you ignored… 😉 (Why are strangers always so interested in my age and where I live?) JOhn. ---
