[vox-tech] help with script

[Peter Jay Salzman]

they probably do.  why?

are you saying this information should be kept secret?

in fact, i would _prefer_ for them to know this information.  that way,
i don't get people who do things like not using the correct subject
line, not using mime to encode their stuff, etc.  if they knew my
procedure, they'll be more careful to follow my directions to the
letter, lest they don't get credit for their homework.
