Chatter away!  Your question reminded me of ages ago when I calling a 
local board and as an individual user would regularly surpass the number

I have the idea. :)  Here running a Linux system with a Virtual Windows.
Used to copy from one system and paste to the other.  The 'rabbit hole' 
(shared directory between the two systems) just wouldn't work.  Finally
