I did get a thank you for the DVD'S I mailed half a dozen of to her so she could pass them out to the kids and her new in-laws. I suppose the email, which at the time took much of an hour to send on the net connection I had then, a bad copper Verizon connection I had to finally terminate as I had been without a phone, but the net still worked as it only needs one good wire, for over 2 months total by the first of May that year, got routed to /dev/null someplace. I think thats called voting with your wallet. Now I have a phone for about 45 minutes after a power failure, when the cable backup batteries are finally depleted. That's not on site, as theres a 20kw nat gas fired generator that fires up about 5 seconds after the lights go out here. So my stuff is covered by standby power site wide. The Missus has COPD, and a long loss of AC in the heat of the summer could finish her. I don't like burying wives, BTDT back in 1969 already. Stroke at 34. A good girl, I still miss her. That family is all gone now, cancer 2, booze 1, out of the three children she gleefully gave me. You say I've had my quota of losses in that department.
