Don's Patch Issue #2005-11-15 from http://www.don-guitar.com

Yeehaw, life is good, business is fair and I reckon we're doing
mostly good at our house.  How about yours?  I hope you're all
well and happy.  Lisa and I have been fairly busy for the last
week or so.  We made ourselves a computer desk that's high on
function and low on budget.  Check out the photos on our
personal news page.  http://www.don-guitar.com/babbleon.html

A Game from Don and Lisa:

How many words can you make using only the following letters
(repeating letters is permitted).

B, C, D, E, H, I, K, O, X

For example, "OX" or "CHEEK".

What is unique about words made of these letters?

All letters are capitalized, block letters (which is also the only clue
we're providing). The solution will be published 48 hours from the
posting of this ezine on the following web page.

The most important people on the Internet, for you and I as computer
users, are software developers.  The world's coolest computer, without
software, is like a car without fuel.  It might look great, but what
can it do?  It doesn't matter who produces the software you love and
use regularly, the developers of that software need your support.

A bit of advice from Internet veteran Bayard J. Fox:

New computer users are often in awe of the things you can get without
cost on the Internet.  There can be hidden costs for the unwary. Use a
"throw away" email address to register, and be constantly on guard
against giving away personal information.  Use a firewall, and provide
only the barest minimum of information on questionnaires.
