Actually, it looks like I'm blackholing fastmail.fm (or more accurately,
bl.spamcop.net is).

You could try using phil at latt.net.  I *think* that should relay through.

Oh, it's not a fitness issue.  It's a disabled issue.  As in "currently
wheelchair-bound, and when the dressings come off *this* time, we'll see
if I can walk without developing non-healing pressure ulcers under my
left foot."

I have no nursing background, but I'm sure there's other applicable
specialist positions.  My doubt is whether I'll ever meet the physical
requirements for anything but a desk job again.

(The ironic thing is, I could probably drive -- or fly for that matter
-- damn near anything they told me to, so long as I didn't have to
WALK.)

That'd be appreciated.  It can't hurt to talk to them.
