--- Thor 2A:  (only for the contributors)
The story yesterday about Thor 2A was an April Fools Joke!
No launch date is decided yet, and no channel line-up has
been announced.
(webmaster)

PS.
There are no April Fools Jokes in this mail, unless any of
the contributors have sent in any, but I don't think so...
