Very well said. Our Prayers go out to you and your family. God Bless You. Dorie ----- Original Message ----- From: The Keyboard Cowboy To: Bashito Sent: Tuesday, September 06, 2005 9:19 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Katrina OT Bashito, Lets see......first, regarding the questions you posed, I suspect there can be several reasons why they were not answered. First, I think many of the list members are terribly caught up in the Katrina disaster. For many of us, it's hard to think about computers given the situation at hand. Many don't know it, but my own father-in-law (83 years old) had to evacuate New Orleans and Charlotte (my wife) and I brought he and his companion to our second home in Arizona. They are like a war zone veterans. We spent the last few days making all kinds of arrangements to help them begin a new life -- they came away with nothing but the clothes on their backs. I suspect they will never return to New Orleans. Another reason you may not have received an answer is that this list is largely a group of novices who share information regarding computers. That being said, we may not know the answer to your question, or the individual who does know the answer may simply not be checking the mail right now. Think of the list as a sort of family of volunteers.....and as such, we sometimes don't get all the questions answered. Regarding the signature lines....thank you for the compliment. I take great pride in collecting those quotes and I'm always tickled when someone reads one and enjoys it. Hang in there Bashito, there are some really good people on this list. They are a close knit group, and try to he;p whenever they can. Sometimes we miss the mark, but we do our best.
