the account under which i was subscribed and recently posting to 
xfb -- morasch@... -- was indeed involuntarily unsubscribed.
i returned from a recent trip to vancouver to find it had happened.

in the absence of knowing what was said about me in the interim
-- xfb has no archives, i guess they're ashamed of what they say --
i'll have to consider carefully whether i wish to re-subscribe.
