hi Craig,

It depends on what you call a disagreement.
Your article mentioned September as the
date of a quasi-operational PRNet. I thought it
seemed too late so I used the example of this
email message to show it was up earlier than
that. I guess it all depends on how you define
operational. I didn't look at the reference in 
your paper. I haven't had time for that. I also
didn't have a chance to read your article in
entirety but of course, I was very curious to see
what you decided to include on packet radio.
