Hi, Bob.
Glad to know your family are now safe and hope they can do a smooth
adjustment in new place. I believe they can do it better view they are adult
and have you near them.
And thanks for the explanation.
Most of the news about Katrina in Indonesia is more sensational than
objective
realities. You can check the Indonesian Magazine named/titled "Tempo" which
means "Time". Time in Spanish also "Tempo", right? And it seems this
magazine try to duplicate the "Time" Magazine. Other magazine is "Gatra"
where the founders are journalists ex "Tempo". And the good newspaper is
"Kompas", the biggest one in Indonesia. You can click the English language.
But I guess that the English version and the
Indonesian version differ slighltly because the readers also differ. The
English version must be more objective.
Here are the urls:
http://www.tempo.co.id/
http://www.gatra.co.id/
http://www.kompas.co.id/
I hope they still have the English version, so I don't need to tell you
anything about the news of Katrina in Indonesia. I read the print version in
Indonesian and not surfing their sites for long, long time.
Well, the world is not paradise. There are the Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
It follows the normal curve in statistics where the most are the good
people, a few are bad and ugly, and some are the best one.
Yes, I enjoy the quotes so much. Thanks for your kindness.
Best regards,
Bash

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.

You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this
world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere
appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged.
