   Hi! mark,   
      
   On 27 Jan 16 14:39, you wrote to me:   
      
    PQ>> I did want to try it.  I really did, even as I was reading the   
    PQ>> preamble. That's when I started freaking out, while reading the   
    PQ>> subliminal warnings of the difficulty level.  Luckily, the   
    PQ>> Firefox browser *broke* and crashed. I'm not going back to the   
    PQ>> site.  :)   
      
    ml> all of my firefoxes worked just fine...   
      
   No bout adoubt it.  I'm yellow to the core when it comes to picking the lingo   
   apart, as I failed English in high school (and have the certificate to prove   
   it).  I can get by on a daily basis with the basics.  No guts, you see.  :)   
      
   Besides that, the problem with the Firefox crash is a hardware thing I think.   
   If I'm not anywhere near a regular networked PC then I'm using my little Dell   
   Latitude 2100 netbook.  It has an occasional dislike for the hardware mouse   
   that I prefer over the built-in mouse pad.  Though it seems to affect Firefox   
   only, I don't use the netbook for anything more than Fidonet newsgroups most   
   days, so, not doing the inter-webs thing isn't a great loss.  I was just lucky   
   it chose the test site to crash on.  ;)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.   
      
   ... It must have been good; can't remember anything & my ears are ringing!
