This afternoon I received what appeared to be be two empty
zephyrgrams. That is, two completely blank Zephyrgram-sized windows
appeared in the usual place on the display. Clicking the mouse on it
did not cause either one to go away. The windows were otherwise
normal-they could be exposed, covered, cycled, etc.
At Bill Sommerfeld's suggestion I sent myself a notice with zwrite.
That had the effect of causing the text of the two blank Zephyrgrams
to appear in their empty windows. Those windows then immediately
vanished, apparently because the mouse click events were queued.
