You forgot about sweeping off the roof of the camper van. Last year, my roof was crushed down about 3" on the bus.
Well, I admit it's getting colder here, but I did not mean to imply that it was cold enough to freeze servers around the world.
My software has on occasion mungled it's index lists to the point where groups, even servers seem to have gone wacky, here, frozen in time it seems if not in space, not allowing me to track threads or get messages, etc. A circular reference was at one time to blame, causing Harry's postings to multiply like rats. As if this was not enough, the responses also replicated themselves in whirling orgies of reproduction by cloning, internal to my machine, of course.
The test message I sent to see if I could still post, was deleted in under a minute, by me, but you seem to have been on a hair trigger to reply. I blame my son, who's multitudinous chat sessions left open, tune servers, and "free" downloaded spyware, seem to sometimes cause conflicts between their constituent parts, drivers, indexes and etcetera.
I am flattered that you hang so closely on even these least significant of my words that you were able to detect it and reply so promptly. Thank you. It appears my system is ok, after all, and that most of our friends here have been hibernating by their morse keys.
I suppose that postings linger for various amounts of time here and there as they and their cancellation messages migrate across the network somewhat erratically.
Thank you again for your kind attentions.
Terry K
Any response now is mere chummery, phishing without a hook.

Here in Aurora, Ontario I always find two other things to do this time of year. Well, three, if you include rushing to beat the first cold weather and get the xmas lights up outside :)
Lightbulbs pop at an incredible rate, perhaps due to the new temps coming in the doors when they're open, and the basement door to the garage needs the closer adjusted in order to swing shut faster, or it won't close.
Just to stay on topic, I can admire the boat (it's in the garage) while I do the adjustment.
-- "Stay calm. Be brave. Wait for the signs."
regards,
Frank Johansen Aurora, Ontario
