I too get a little frustrated by messages that get off track as I have an old slow computer matched only by the wretched Internet service we get. Can't afford to update the computer and when I tried to switch to another ISP I was told my computer was too old and out of date for their software. Ain't that a hoot? That being said part of what makes this Bbs so successful IMHO is the cameraderie and the personalities involved. My minor frustrations are a small price to pay for the benefits.

I've noticed that last year's curmudgeon seems to have made a New Year's resolution to play nicer (though I've always found George's succinct style to be amusing and his input quite valuable). I hope this isn't a thing where we have to take turns, 'cause I'll take my toys and go home ;o). Quit stepping on your d--k, Don, you're trampling on my karma. Tom
