    I would add that the "Possible Supernovae Page'" - where we were
    relegated to, still has only Rachel's posting after over a month,
    http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/CBAT_PSN.html
    This temporary page is unlinked from anywhere, so effectively
    invisible, while the promised interactive page hasn't appeared yet.
