I think their website is yourclassical.org KM> Huh, that's an interesting site, thanks! I like the "Piano Puzzler" with Bruce Adolph, and Fred Child. They take contemporary tune, and reformat it into the style of a classical music composer. It will work your brain. :) > > Wonder if they got a shock from the baton?? :P KM> ZAP! You in the second strings, pay attention! LOL!! > You have too much time on your hands. :P KM> And too many weird ideas. Or we've been BBSing too long. :P > That'd be my luck.

You know how Win10 insists that you pay up (seriously??) and KM> activate before it'll let you customize it, or even switch to the dark KM> theme? Disconnect internet before installing. Do your customizing. NOW KM> connect to net. It will behave as if it's activated, even tho it's not. Interesting. Well, my copies of W10 (the BBS computer is on 32-bit, and the laptop where I do my ham radio and website is 64-bit). As for a dark theme with Windows 10, I wasn't aware one existed. I use that with Facebook, as it's easier on the eyes. KM> Enough duct tape silences anyone. I think of the Cheech And Chong routine with "The Big Brave Motorcycle Rider" was in a wreck, and got taped up big time. The problem was, he had as much hair on his body as a gorilla. And, you thought waxing was bad??!! > You might as well as get a beer to go with it. KM> LOL... rootbeer, yeah. I've known of Dad's, Hires, A&W, and Mug...not sure if there are other brands or not. > I have a password manager for all my internet stuff.
