I've been absent, absent minded and not Lurking here much. I'd think every (almost) QWK packet has messages from this echo in it. Lots of other different stuff going on - computer wise and NON computerwise. And I'm not wired for Stereo! to be able to sometimes get one thing done.

I know that You've tried keeping those Storms from crossing the Mississippi River and heading towards my area, and I appreicate that, but around 11AM Today Rain and Storms are going to start up here [according to the National Weather Service - who makes new predictions every Hour with the new Hourly Data that comes in on their computer(s) ]. There has to be a way to put a Barrier at and along the Mississippi River to contain Storms to the West Side of the USA, and keep them from bothering Us Easterners. Can't You and Barry figure out a way to do that? As You do, I don't use the computer during Storms. I suppose I could get a Wi-Fi Router here and use a Notebook on Battery Power but when the storms occur I don't have ANY A.C. Power going to ANYTHING that is connected to ANY of the computers in this room (Commodore 64, Old 486, XP Desktop or Vista Notebook), and it sometimes cause me to experience the DT's. So far this Year I haven't had Cabin Fever due to the CONVID-19 Shut Down because I can turn a pc on and Run Programs on it AND ALSO I have a DSL Connection for my computer to get QWK Packets or Browse the internet etc etc IN GOOD WEATHER, OF COURSE. Nancy knows that I'm a bit active since I Post Messages occasionally in the Cooking echo, that She is also in. 73 de Ed W9ODR . . .... * <- Tribble */ \* <- Tribbles swordfighting --- MultiMail/MS-DOS v0.49 * Origin: ILink: CCO - capitolcityonline.net (454:3/105) .
