In truth the messages are getting processed and put in the right place, but for some reason the top level archive page is not showing the updates. And of course the mailman interface is having problems, giving errors on various functions. Something odd is going on, I'm looking into it. I *really* need to get the new server up and running! mjb. 12:33 From sardatech at yahoo.com Sat Oct 8 15:43:51 2011 From: sardatech at yahoo.com (tom sarda) Date: Sat, 8 Oct 2011 14:43:51 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Land-speed] sanding Message-ID: <1318110231.51308.YahooMailNeo@web161404.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> Hey everyone, Is a dual action sander the same as a random orbital sander?
