I think they're on to me. Your NUshields passed without a hickup, but I
had some serious bureaucratic tiff around John Goggan's Pretec cards. And
about a week later I really _had_ a commercial sample sent (this one came
from Thailand) and they withheld it again.

I suppose my name has been entered into the GKC (Great Kafkian Computer).
Still, thanks for the suggestion.
