Chris and all,

I had forgotten about that client, and I have no recollection that I/we
either did or did not post anything about it.

I do, however, remember this.  We did not use an internet hook-up between
the two sites; we used fax machines.  This was a choice the client made, and
it kept things simple and still met the need.  Most of the topics posted at
both sites, by the way, were identical.
