     (According to Jeff Robertson, 97.7 HTZ FM is actually in St.
     Catharines.)
  
+    SEIDENBERG@MARY.FORDHAM.EDU apparently has a source of information,
+    and has posted the following:
+ 
+     Rupert Hine will not produce the next album.
+ 
+     The band will start working on material on Jan. 15.  I wonder if that
+     means that the band will start writing then, or that the band will go
+     into the studio then.
+ 
+     The target date for release is September 15.  This disagrees with what
+     Alex has said, and I don't know who is right.
+ 
     Atlantic/SRO has denied the rumors that there is a video release
     scheduled for December.

        Sends you this text explaining the server commands.
  
!    /ADDRESS <address>
!    ------------------
! 
!       This becomes the active address for your request.  It overrides
!       any previous address specifiers.  This must be a valid domain
!       style address by which you can be reached.  If you have any
!       doubts about your mail address, you should ask your system
!       administrator for a correct domain style address.  Use this
!       command if you are not sure that the 'From:' and 'Reply-To:'
!       addresses generated by your mail system are reliable.  [/PATH]
! 
!    /SUBSCRIBE <list>
!    -----------------
! 
!       Subscribe the active address to an email list.  A list of
!       currently available lists is presented at the end of this help.
!       Some of the lists are restricted.  [/SUB]
! 
!    /UNSUBSCRIBE <list>
!    -------------------
! 
!       Unsubscribe the active address from an email list.  A list of
!       currently available lists is presented at the end of this help.
!       Some of the lists are restricted.  [/UNSUB]
! 
!    /WHO <list>
!    -----------
! 
!       Show addresses of subscribers to an email list.  A list of
!       currently available lists is presented at the end of this help.
!       Some of the lists are restricted.  [/LIST]
! 
!    /LIMIT <bytes>
!    --------------
! 
!       Specify the maximum number of bytes which may be sent in a
!       single mail message.  Transfers exceeding this amount will be
!       split into several messages before sending.  A value of 0 means
!       that there is no limit.  The archive server has a default size
!       limit of 100000 bytes.  You may change this if you know that you
!       have different limits.  Most (but not all) uucp sites have a
!       limit of 100000 bytes.  CompuServe accounts have a 60000 byte
!       limit on mail.  Internet and Bitnet sites should set this to
!       300000 bytes.  [/SIZE]
! 
!    /QUIT
!    -----
! 
!       The remainder of the message is ignored.  This can be useful if
!       a long signature is appended to the message.  [/END,/EXIT]
! 
!    /SEND <item>
!    ------------
! 
!       The specified <item> is looked up in the file list.  If found,
!       it will be sent to you by email.  Binary (8-bit) items are
!       uuencoded before sending.  The /PACK and other commands affect
!       this command.  You must specify the item as directory/filename.
! 
!       NOTE: use forward slashes '/' only
! 
!    /RESEND <item> <part> [<part>...]
!    --------------------------------
! 
!       Resend the indicated <part>s of this <item>.  This is useful if
!       not all parts of a multi-part transmission arrived correctly.
!       When resending, the /PACK and /LIMIT used must be identical to
!       those of the original transmission.  This information should be
!       on the 'BEGIN' line of one of the received parts.
! 
!       NOTE: use forward slashes '/' only
! 
!    /UUSEND <item>
!    --------------
! 
!       This command is identical to the command /SEND except that the
!       <item> is guaranteed to be uuencoded.  This is useful if you
!       know that the return message will go through EBCDIC based
!       computers.
! 
!       NOTE: use forward slashes '/' only
! 
!    /UURESEND <item> <part> [<part>...]
!    -----------------------------------
! 
!       This command is identical to the command /RESEND except that the
!       <item> is guaranteed to be uuencoded.  This is useful if you
!       know that the return message will go through EBCDIC based
!       computers.
! 
!       NOTE: use forward slashes '/' only
! 
!    /PACK <type>
!    ------------
! 
!       Change items compression to this <type> which will affect all
!       SENDs and RESENDs (and UU versions) from this point on until
!       another PACK line is encountered.  Choices are NONE, Z, COMPRESS,
!       and ZIP.  [/ARCHIVER]
! 
!    /INDEX
!    ------
! 
!       Sends a list of the items with sizes, dates, and descriptions.
!       This list is sorted by directory and then by filename.  It has
!       the same effect as the command /SEND INDEX.   [/FILES]
! 
!    /MESSAGE
!    --------
! 
!       Send a message to the administrator of the server.  The
!       remainder of the message will be sent, without parsing for
!       additional commands.  [/NOTE]
! 
!    === APPENDICES ====================================================
! 
!    1.  Requests are queued and processed once per day during the
!        early morning hours of the US.
