[Milsurplus] SORBS website

[David Edsall]

Hi all,
re: the blocking of Patrick's mail, I googled SORBS and found their 
website - that might help to explain what is going on:

http://www.us.sorbs.net/

Not to be confused with the Slavic people who inhabit part of what used to 
be called East Germany. ;o)
Good luck,
David W1TDD
