Hi Robbie, the phrase "and nervousness". which seems to have persisted somewhere from another email and drop in at random! It now seems to have gone away a computageist??

Don't quite know what you're talking about. What is it that appears in your emails? meanwhile here's one from me. A puzzler alright, one that drove me up the wall over the weekend. Having had my new laptop for a few days only, I was using Note Pad since I hadn't installed Office yet. Repeatedly, the text was displayed backwards. That's to say, while the lines stayed in order, the text in each line ran from right to left. So I had to press ctrl-cursor-left from the end of the line, in order to move forwards through the words. Unless this has anything to do with the fact that the machine was built in Japan, I am utterly clueless as to what causes this phenomenon. Guesses welcome.
