TODAY'S TOPICS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Thank You!
- Status Update
Hi Affiliate.
For our newer members who have joined since my last newsletter, I
have posted that issue on the website so as to bring you up to
date. Here's the link:

Now, being somewhat "old school" I think it's just good manners to
respond personally and individually to anyone who e-mails genuine
good wishes to you. But so many of my customers and subscribers
responded to notification of my sudden hospitalization a couple of
weeks ago that you have made individual acknowledgments an
impossibility -- at least if I am ever to catch up on the real
business of The Hacker's Nightmare and this newsletter.
I'm extremely grateful and buoyed by all the expressions of
understanding and support and just disappointed that I'm going to
have to settle for a group thank you here. But please be assured
that your support has meant a lot to me.
But, unhappily, I'm still incarcerated.
The "few more days" of hospitalization I was hoping for in my last
update has extended to another week. I'm to progress to a final
stage of treatment tomorrow and, all being well with that, the
current projection is that I be released on Wednesday, to be
followed by fortnightly maintenance day-visits to the hospital for
a couple of months.
By the way, please don't think of me as languishing away in a
crowded hospital ward dependent on others for my needs. The real
picture is very different indeed. The expensive private health
cover that I've more than once been going to drop as a "rip off" is
getting the workout of a lifetime, providing me with the luxury of
a private room with phone, TV and meals delivered.
As for my general well-being, after the agonies of the first week
subsided I have been feeling fairly normal. I'm fully mobile and
wander around at will when not scheduled to be scanned, drained,
injected or otherwise scientifically abused.
But my relative normality creates its own problem in that I am
restrained enough to be bored to tears most of the time. I have to
make a conscious effort not to become one of those unsettled,
demanding "bad patients".
Anyway...
**** STATUS UPDATE ****
OK, well despite my absence things have been moving along and the
boiling panic of a fortnight ago is now but a warm simmer.
Sadly I still have to apologize for a "newsletter" that doesn't
contain the useful content that I like to provide, but hopefully
this will be the last "empty" one.
As of this moment I believe all outstanding support queries have
been answered. If you have sent a support request and not yet
received a response please resend it from scratch with full
details, using ONLY the proper Contact form, the URL for which
appears below.
In your own best interests please do not send support requests by
replying to this newsletter or directly to me. The proper Contact
form always gets priority, as do well explained problems.
You may recall from my previous message that a delivery of CDs had
not arrived on schedule. They have since turned up and much of the
backlog has been posted already. The balance should be cleared by
the end of this coming week at the latest.
BUT PLEASE KEEP IN MIND...
The CD packs are posted from Brisbane, Australia, so there is an
inevitable delivery gap that is out of our control.
Again, my sincere apologies for all the disruption. My problems
should not become your inconveniences. But as previously explained,
too many things "broke" at the same time -- something I'll be making
very sure can never happen again.
With even a modicum of good luck we should be back to normal very
soon.
---------------------------------------------------------
Until next time, Stay safe! And remember...
The human brain is the first line of defense;
keep it engaged when online.
