a PC tip for those who receive "SI server stalled" message

if you stall, then hit BACK to return to your written message
then highlight the whole message and copy it, by doing...
while highlighted, copy the text with ControlC or EditMenu/Copy

then hit BACK once more to return to the SI message you wanted to respond to

when you see that original message, hit RESPOND again
control puts you back in the message window
then paste your message once again, by doing...
use ControlV or EditMenu/Paste

send it on its way a second time
I have used this technique countless times
it works immediately every single time
something gets gummed up in the links when the error happens
dunno what, but do know how to work around it
