    You asked me to quote some of the message I am responding to
    because it is hard to follow the conversation. Sure, I can do
    that.

    But.... you didn't here. I guess you mean on your next reply. :-)

    I didn't realize some of the conversation goes away because
    I was hitting CTRL A to respond. I just assumed the entire conversation was there I guess.

    Ahhh, if you're hitting Ctrl-A to *select* the previous message's
    text, you then have to hit Ctrl-M to *paste* it into your reply,
    and then you'll be able to type stuff below it.

    From now On I will do that.

    That would be good, and appreciated by everyone. Thanks.


    ... All the easy problems have been solved.

    Thanks for the tip, it's been a very long time since i engauged in conversations on here. It's been 25 years or so and I don't remember
    coping and pasting. I tried it here, I hoped it worked.

    These days some use the word, 'copypasta' to save syllables.

    25 years is a long time to drop off the wire. I vaguely remember
    computers at the library linked up to gopher, WAIS, and BBS.

    Welcome back to the Internuts.

    Yes, when you say it out loud 25 years is a long time, but when you get married, have kids, have two jobs, buy a house, go to college, then life moves along quickly. It really didn't seem that long at all.
    However, it is nice to be back with the Internuts, i missed it here.
