[Rumori] PCP back on Rumori

[Jon Nelson]

Oh, Rumori, how I missed you. :) I'm back online recently, and back on Rumori as of today. 

I was offline for awhile, waiting for my old AOL account to restart and finally realized it wasn't worth waiting for, so opened this free yahoo account. Apologies to those of you who are seeing this twice, but I know there are some folks on Rumori who didn't receive my "hey, here's my new email address" letter, and I want to make sure to reintroduce myself to everyone as most of my contact list was wiped out when the AOL account died. so - the original email is below - thanks - glad to be back,
