Bill requested that I update the list to say that the PySIG get together 
Wednesday the 17th is still on. Bill is expecting to be there although 
just now after the ice storm he is without power and PSNH tells him that 
it might be 4 or 5 days before he gets power back. He's got a small 2k 
watt generator that he can run his refrigerator with but if he wants 
running water he has to switch power from the refrigerator to his water 
pump. I on the other hand live not terribly far from CMC in Manchester 
and our power is almost never out for more than a few minutes (or an 
hour or so much more rarely). So Bill will be mostly off the air for the 
next few days... If you want to get in touch with him give me a shout 
and I'll relay any messages or call him directly since his land line 
telephone is working.
