 JB> So I've heard. Things are getting better?

Yes, but slowly...  :)   I just had surgery yesterday to take the pin
out that was holding bones immobile do that ligaments would heal.  Now,
finally (!), I can put some weight on that foot.  New phase, but still
can't do much... lots more healing and therapy in the works...  :)

As in, "fixed, but good"?  ;/   Hope you get that* fixed soon, too...

Glad to be of service.  :)   I don't really remember the first day
precisely... but then, I'm constantly having to ask for the magic spells
as I go along...  Anything I haven't used recently, or written down for
future reference, sends me back to the wizard for refreshing the memory.
And it has* been quite a few years...   :)

I hear you.  :(   I'd imagine you could put it into a script... wasn't
that part of what the wizard had suggested?  Just at a more basic level
of the computer?  When you are back to experimenting, feel free to
ask... and I can pass it back to the wizard..  :)

 NB> I really am* only a sorcerer's apprentice, who can spout

 JB> But Miss Nancy... (Wish I had more Forest Gump quotes. Oh... Now we

Nope, not Harry Potter... not even Disney... try Dukas ("doo-kah'")  :)
Classical composer, wrote a tone-poem (based on a story), which got used
in Disney's Fantasia...

 JB> But wait... What am I supposed to do with all these friggin'
 JB> brooms?!?! 

Sure hope they've stopped carrying water...  <BG>   Have they stopped
moving?   Maybe you could sell them to get your replacement HD?  <g,d&r>

ttyl           neb

... When in doubt...No, don't do that either.
