Shall do Bob. With not too much action in the stock markets (volatility-wise) when I am online I find myself chitting and chatting more than I should!! Jane:-)

Okay, that was a horribly long 3 hours for me. Seemed to last days. I rebooted iHub's webserver because we had a problem with email (apparently since Saturday) and when it came back up, it blue-screened! Which took out SI because iHub is the DNS host for all of our domains. We should be good to go now. Both of iHub's machines back themselves up onto each other nightly, so we weren't at a huge exposure there, but a 3-hour outage because of hard drive errors is not good. And I'm very surprised to find that when I paid all that money for the iHub webserver, I apparently cheaped out on hard drives. That'll be remedied.

Hello Bob, enough said, thanks again. Chugs, Jay P.S. If I may make an observation: It is possible that all of us will be part of this community for a good long time, while we are living all around the world, getting married, employed, fired, lucky, or otherwise in trouble, and then, one fine day, buried. So perhaps SI can duplicate many of the real world functionalities, such as - jail (i.e. restriction to 'thunderdome') - corner (i.e. allowance to only post one post per day) - boarding school (i.e. restriction to only a specific thread) - graveyard (i.e. can only post but no one can respond) :0) EOM
