Andrew,

Thanks! I was quite pleased with that effort. I've been tracing 
through a *lot* of messages.  I think it's a clever bit of code. 

My second email superceded one of my questions, but not the other.

I don't understand how a post office gets a registeredHandler 
without a call to super(id) in OSOffice, which would call 
addHandler(). I assume things would happen like this:

OSOffice osPostOffice = new OSOffice(M_ID);
// calls OSOffice constructor
OSOffice(String newId)
{
	id = newId;
}
// no call to super: compiler inserts super() which calls
PostOffice(){ }
// does nothing!!! so the compiler inserts another super() ending up at
SimpleMessageHandler(){ }
// which also does nothing.

I see that the OSOffice constructor initialises id, which is a member 
of SimpleMessageHandler (supersuperclass). 

I must be barking up the wrong tree but I can't figure this out.

Sounds like you're having a bummer of a week; I hope things come 
good.  We keep missing out on storms here in Yeppoon so I'm kinda 
jealous!

Peggy

Hi Peggy.  You do indeed seem to have got it.  I've only read the last
half of your message.  I read your first message.  Does this second
message superseed this one (it seems to at first glance)?

I'm half way through going through all the stuff that was stolen.  The
second time in about 7 weeks or something like that.  That and the
outside flooded because of the storm.  Argh! --
