Hi Paul,
Bill just explained the problem (and solution).
Bill has offered to do the conversion again from
the November 2006 draft, after which we'll reapply
the further edits I did for yesterday's release.
Thus saving me from an enormous amount of
careful hand-patching of yesterday's release.
Someone in Hawaii should buy Bill a drink or
dinner or whatever and send the check to me!
Talk to you all later today.
Cheers,
- Ira
