    HG> There's just a small "problem", the text in swedish is invariably   
    HG> printed with much smaller text (types). Apparently the swedish talking   
    HG> humans are supposed to have a much better eyesight.   
      
   EV> IIRC Mark is the one who mentioned I could pres the CRTL Key  and   
   EV> move the Mouse Wheel to Enlarge or Shrink what I see in Firefox   
   EV> Browser.   
      
   It's not any text on the screen I'm talking of, it's the text on the   
   products in the grocery and other outfits.   
      
   EV> Me too, both are chemicle reactions, either to change the Film   
   EV> Emulsion or the Copper on the PC Board to get the desired change.   
      
    HG> Yes, I know, 32F is a number I remember, and then the Fahrenheit scale   
    HG> goes up/down roughly 2F to 1C. NOTE, I wrote roughly, actually 1.8.F.   
      
   EV> 32F is 0C .   
      
   Of course I know that, that's why it's good to keep that in mind.   
      
    EV> I have forgotten that the U.S. Units are called Imperial and have   
    EV> thought the Japanese Units were the ones called Imperial, My Mistake   
      
   Yes.   
      
    HG> I think that expression may come from Britain having a lot of colonies   
    HG> around the globe. They were said to belong to the british imperium or   
    HG> commonwealth.   
      
   There are differences that you may not be aware of, in both length and   
   volumes between english = Imperial(UK) and US specifications.   
      
   An US gallon is 3.78 litres, while an UK gallon is 4.55 litres.   
   A UK mile is 1.61 kilometres or backwards 1 km is 0.62 UK mile.   
   In my Weights and Measurements Table, the Length of a US mile isn't   
   mentioned.   
      
   EV> I got a Email from Tripp-Lite and it said the UPS I have charges the   
   EV> battery and a reduced rate when I turn it off.   
      
   In that case it's a fire hazard. If the mains switch doesn't isolate it   
   from the AC net, it wouldn't pass the security laws of equipment here.   
      
   EV> I have read about Servers using Linux OS's, didn't know any were   
   EV> using OS/2, Thanks.   
      
   Yes many large companies used OS/2 for their servers, and some still do.   
      
   EV> It's a Full Time Job for A Electronic Repairman keeping up to date   
   EV> on all of that stuff too, isn't it?   
      
   I'd say it comes naturally and automatically, if the interest is there.   
      
   EV> From what I read at askwoody.com of His comments and Other People   
   EV> commenting on His articles, WINTEN isn't for the ordinary computer   
   EV> user.   
      
   That seems likely, from my experience.   
      
   EV> It's a week after New Years Day, and I'm still catching up reading   
   EV> BBS mail.   
      
   I can note that, shame on you, hi.
