Oh, how horrible, Lindsey!!  I hope you and your family came through without any problems.

I've just got to see if there is an explanation for this.  It has been driving me crazy.

When I go to a section of the forum, i.e., Events or Current Talk, and there are several items that are "New" - let's say 6 of them, I start at the one at the bottom, click "New" and after reading that one, click "Back" to return to the list and do the one above it, and so on until I've seen all 6, movng from oldest to newest.

Now, when I was able to get in with Mozilla for a while, I noticed that each time I returned to the list, the "New" was still there.  That made sense, since I was just returning to the previous page and not refreshing it.

But in IE, both before the switch and after I had to resume using it, that didn't happen.  Each time I returned to the page, the "new" would be gone from the one I had just read.  It made it a lot easier to remember where I left off to click the next one.  It surprised me since the page wasn't being refreshed, but I liked that it worked that way.

All right - now I've got a new computer - and when I use IE, it's a combination of the two.  I've been paying close attention the last few days to make sure.  In each section, the first item I do, when I hit "back," the "new" has disappeared from that item.  But, all the subsequent items retain the "new" until I refresh the page.  Surely, it has to work one way or the other!!  It is quite consistent.  The first one I do on a page loses its "new" and all of the others remain unless it's refreshed.

Wait for this to load and then click rapidly on the ground and in the sky and watch the action!.

It's wonderful!

Happy Fourth to All!!

What is the first number?  The second is the number of characters, but how do you decide what to do for the first?  So far I haven't noticed any differences in any of them.

Does it have to be this Quentin?  I think I'd go for the 1840 Quentin.

Earlier this week Larry King had Katharine Houghton, Katharine Hepburn's niece on talking about her aunt.  They repeated it tonight - not because of this, it had already been scheduled!

I heard parts of it the other night, but heard some new parts tonight and it turns out the niece played Hepburn's daughter in "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" - I had no idea.  I looked her up on the imdb and she's been in other movies and apparently a lot of stage work.

I agree, I'm completely frazzled.  My 8+ day old computer might have to wiped and Windows (and everything I've done all week) reinstalled!

I'm stuck in Safe Mode.  Gateway couldn't get me out of it and tried a System Restore.  We went back earlier and earlier (I finally did one more myself afterwards, going back to the original install last Thursday) and it keeps saying that it can't restore as there have been no changes to the system.

The Gateway tech said she thinks the system is unstable and I'll have to start from scratch.

I just can't believe it!!  Almost everything I've done has run into problems and taken longer than it should have - and now - this!!!

Oh, poor Annie!    I hope it will turn out all right.
