Ooops!

Sunday, October 30, 1994 by Dave Winer.

A very quick message...

I found a bug in the script that distributes these essays.

It was skipping one out of every eight mailboxes. Ouch. Because the list is growing and transforming, the bug would "move around" the list. So you might have received messages for a while and then stopped receiving them. Thanks to Tony Bove for helping me find this one. Apologies to everyone else.

If you haven't received some of the messages, and want to, just send me an email and I can either send the entire set, or send you specific essays.

Here's a list of all of them, as of 10/30/94:
