For those planning ahead...some network outages

This blog, the election law listserv, and my e-mail will be down as Loyola conducts maintenance on its network on 5/28/04 and intermittently the weekend of 6/18/04. Messages sent to me or to the election law list during the downtime will likely not be received.
