I get up very early in the morning.  My mailer uses UTC as a time reference and
converts it to local time, depending on whether we are in Daylight Savings Time
(YUCK!) or Standard Time.  We are about Latitude: 30-04'08" N, Longitude:
89-55'51" W, which puts us in Central Time.

Hardheaded like me, huh?

RN> I know.  You may not remember I ran OS/2 since the December 1992

 HG> No I don't recall that.

Now you know.  I really liked it right up till the time IBM dropped support for
it in order to write software for the space program.  I think they could have
done both.  They're certainly large enough.

Windows does not.  When a power failure occurs, the only programs that will run
when power is restored are the Windows stuff and whatever I have in the Startup
folder.  I am using the same UPS as you.  Good for surges, but not enough for
the number of lightning strikes we have at certain times of the year.

That it does.  One of my backup systems on the closet floor has XP on it, but I
don't let it connect to the Internet when I haul it out of the closet and plug
it in.

Retirement is the number one killer of old people.  (-:

That is both funny and true.  I never heard anything like that in a barbershop,
because all the clientele wanted to talk about was sports.

When they supported it, I let it send the data.  Now, however, they get nothing
and that includes any feedback I might feel tempted to write them about.

RN> Merry Christmas!

 HG> Thanks!

I hope you and yours have one.

 HG> Have a nice day,

You too.
