Hi there,

This is to let everyone know, the help file service by e-mail at
bcr@physics.purdue.edu will be discontinued.  I have not actually
advertised this service for several months, but still there are 
many requests each day.  So please, remove any mention of this
service from your FAQ's, HOWTO's, and any other files where it is
mentioned.

As of the 1st of October, I'm nolonger employed by Purdue.  Yes, retired
at the age of 27.  (Sounds so much better than unemployed.)  I have filed
for an extention of my account, so I may still continue to receive personal
e-mail for 6 months at that address.  However, I will discontinue updating
files immediatly, and I will deactivate the server before the end of the 
six month time extention.

Also, if you are mirroring anything from ftp://physics.purdue.edu/pub/bcr/
be aware those files will nolonger be updated as well.  These files will
disappear as soon as I have a new account to copy them to.  The only mirror
I know of is sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/X11/Xconfigs, but there may be 
others.

              Thanks,
                         Bill


P.S. If you know of a good job, remember I can still receive private e-mail
messages for six months.
