 My fellow Luddites: Would everyone here who, like me, has NO IDEA what Doug et al are talking about please raise your hands? Thought so.
Doug, can you dumb this down enough for the tech-challenged among us to understand? Hope so.

PS: Nope, haven't drowned yet, thanks for checking.

As Dan points out - the issue has been resolved for this one individual.  I
think the lesson here is that if you have a website, and gmail, it is a good
idea to check your gmail filters to see if there's one there you didn't
install (as per the original link) and to take the kind of care re going
away and blogging about it as you would in telling strangers your house is
open and you're not home.

Thanks for the update Dan

Doug
