[ale] How to test your public internet connection for open ports

[Ron Frazier]

Michael T.,

Well, here we are at the keyboard again, and for me, late at night.  I 
do appreciate the apology.  That was quite a comprehensive history 
lesson you compiled on the events that almost started a flame war.  I'll 
admit that there were a few times when I could have chosen better 
words.  I wasn't really TRYING to portray attitude.  This communicating 
business is hard.  Remind me not to become a diplomat.  I'll probably 
reply to some of the individual parts of your message later.  Your posts 
are quite a challenge to read and respond to.  It usually takes me 2 or 
3 readings.  I will try to get to that soon.  I also hope to get to some 
of that research you mentioned.  Have a good weekend.

Sincerely,

Ron

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
