Thanks M, I just went on 12:05pm and saw the earlier article reposted
with the address--so someone is playing games.  I will hide the article
and remove the text.  It is a repost of the repost. -- eliz

FYI: Another article of Jim Crawford's has been repost to the CIMC
newswire, complete with fleshspace address and phone.  But I went ahead
and removed both address and phone from the post...
