Thanks to all of you who answered my message about locating forms for
Sweepstakes. I have found out that the particular forms I wanted are printed
in the ARRL Contest Yearbook.
I appreciated all the information and encouragement you all sent me. See
you in SS!

The "Good Times" virus is a HOAX!!!! It has been a hoax since the
top-of-the-line
computer was a 386. It is absolutely amazing that this zany little scenario
continues along with the lifespan of a lava rock...If you do receive a
message with "Good Times" anywhere within, you have been visited by a
prankster with a penchant for truly ancient cyberlarks. He, or she, is
no doubt old enough to remember the arrival of monochrome monitors
and 80 meg hard drives. The "Good Times" roll on, and on, and on, and on....

I was really stupid here and didn't tell anyone where I placed Linux-Logger.
Linux Logger is available on my ftp site at ftp://ftp.dtx.net/pub/foggie.
