yes, again, google access WAS handy, fast and very intuitive. but now...takes days to update a screen *if* it ever decides to update. Eternal-September was installed years ago, but never used, more of a nuisance. However, when google failed to show any postings; I went back to the list provided by ES to scan down through, reading as needed. Answering? have to go to the WinXP Pro [spit, spit, curse begone!] and use it temporarily. which I'mm now using along with google access through MS IE, which yields these wonderful quote groupings.

Anyway, will try out that .org, if works, I'm done ...I'll post a reply to let you know.

Just tired of having my time taken up for whizbang, when I don't want whizbang, I just want to read the postings. ..and quickly reply when desired.
