This seems like a safe place, I hope! My first time here, and I'm riding in on the slowest, saddest ole PC in these parts. It has one redeeming virtue: it still works well enough to register and post this. The slicker, fancier, newer one is over in the corner leaking trojans, worms, and virii all over the floor, while pop-ups parade madly across its contorted display, covering nearly every inch of the screen with come-ons, look-outs, and gotchas. In that one remaining patch of unsullied screen is a nice bright red box informing the world that, "Scan is Completed! Ain't no viruses in here, dude!" So I was feeling all depressed about those unpleasant folk in the world who like to amuse themselves by ruining the days of the rest of us, when I happened onto this place. The whole idea of a forum where wizards come to help out the helpless is like a sunny day after a really bad storm. Makes you feel good about people again! I'm sure glad that I hung onto this old beater, and I'm really glad that people will still go out of their way to help a stranger out of a bad spot. Nice to meetcha! Chuck |

BC is your lifeboat! And since it expands as needed, there is always room for one more person.
