Hello all, Before we get to the OPC information, and with the kind permission of the List Admin, I just wanted to pass a message on to our Australian members, some of whom may be having to deal with the awful consequences of the appalling weather conditions. In England we are getting extensive coverage on the news of the flooding tragedies and I, like many of our listers, would like to express my sympathies and hope that you are not in any danger. You are in my thoughts.
