It just takes longer to retrieve. In youth our
memory is like a 2GB DD with only 100MB data
on it. Later the DD is almost full and files
are fragmented. So they take longer to retrieve.
When I can't remember someones name I just wait
and almost inevitably it appears after a few
minutes. :)

PS: I'm worried about AMAT volume. It better
pick up soon.

**OT**
BB,

I just started following some of the SI threads a couple months ago and have been learning a lot. Thanks for the education. I also bought my first AMAT recently and plan to ride it to new all time highs. Now for my first question: what is "<VBG>". I've been in the computer industry for 30 years and no one can top y'all on the number to TLA's. I got one in too <GGG>.

Thanks, Vaughn
