Hi, All.
while going through my files on a drive purchased in 2005, I found the
following facts. I am certain some have been circulating around the Net
forever, but here they are again. <grin>
Actually, I know for a fact that some of these do work as mama and friends
have advised as such.
Some helpful hints and who would think.....
