NOTE: With the economy as it is, the HBD is struggling to
meet its meager operating expenses of approximately $3500
per year. If less than half of those currently directly
subscribed to the HBD sent in a mere $5.00, the HBD would
be able to easily meet its annual expenses, with room to
spare for next year. Please consider it.

Pat,
Great work!
Fingers crossed with this post. Hopefully I'll be able to decloak from lurking
mode now that the 80 char line wrapping jibberscrinsen has been sorted.
Apologies for a lengthy response, but hey, I wanna see the line wrapper, um,
rapping!
Cheers,
Rowan

Subject: Re: Cleaning Kegs

I've cleaned some mead bottles that had a visible deposit in them with
an oxy cleaner(sunbrite brand iir. might have been a cheap brand). It
didn't work very well, but when I used PBW, it instantly removed it,
For cleaning lines, they have line cleaners that are probably even
more aggressive.

Subject: Next up: Multi-Part MIME

Greetings, Beerlings! Take me to your lager...

Thank you to all who have voiced their appreciation for the wrapper, and
also to those who demonstrated their faith in our efforts through their
continued support for the HBD. Hopefully, the wrapper will serve us well
with little difficulty. I'm sure there are more tweaks to come for that
'un - I even have a few in mind already.

For my next trick, I will attempt to make the HBD server swallow
multi-part MIME without indigestion or reflux. This will be much more
difficult, though, and will require this "lull" in my professional
pursuits to endure for some time in order to accomplish it with the
existing set of programs. (Fingers crossed.)

It does sorta feel good to have the HBD skunkwerx fully open once again.
It's been too long.

Code is poetry. (And mine is that nasty abstract stuff that requires a lot
of patience to decypher and understand; and a bunch of people to snap
their fingers after each verse - and to pretend they "get it"... =)
