Re: Lectures and written communications



It looks like the gremlin in our email system has disappeared.

What I tried to say to Herb about the letter that he got from Olympus was that it was the written equivalent of those dreadful telephone voice response systems we are all too familiar with.

Yesterday, I spent about 15 minutes trying to get through to a human at Sears to cancel a credit card that they gave to me without ever asking if I wanted the #@!! thing. It only took navigation through four layers of automated responses before I found out how to reach someone at Sears who could fog a mirror.

And they wonder why I'm irascible!

vestigating now.
