no, no contact lenses. And she like exercise as much as I do. *smile*

Well, she knows about it. That's a good start... *smile*

Thanks. Been in touch with her since...
The delay is due to the news server running out of space. To quote the
maintainer who has just brought it up:
"The overnight expire failed and coredumped on the 14th, filling the
partition. I've deleted it and restarted the expire, but because it's been a
couple of days since an expire completed, space is *very* tight, so it may
fill up again during the expire, and so fail... in which case I have to
delete the databases and rebuild them, which will take quite some time."
I hope I won't be forced to use G2 again. It was dreadful without any
'annotation' and scoring rules.
