See, that's why you need to unkink the internet hose once in a while. You gotta be careful about that.
Also, while I'm at it, you need to do some preventative maintenence on the internet cable too. See, the letters and numbers that flow through it can damage the insides of the wires. Especially the "sharp" letters like "A", "V", "W" and the WORST of them is the"%" symbol, becasue the little 'o' bits can fling off and it's like a shotgun inside there. If you sent a blast of binary down the pipeline once in a while, that SHOULD get most of it. If you miss it, you'll need to do a complete overhaul of the DSL lines, and that's just a mess.
And before you guffaw too loud, this was the basis of an april fools gag in my college. The joke was that e-mails were putting too much wear on the internet connection, so you were limited to the number of "sharp" letters you could have, but you could use semi-sharp "e", "a" and "g" becasue they flowend through the lines easier. Oh... the carnage that followed that april fools gag....

I'm weird. Just work through that and we'll all be fine.

The next time HoP goes down I think we should all just CALL Malcom and he'll manually write down our posts and read us what we've missed.
Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

Good to see you all back on line.
If we as members of the human race practice meditation, we can transcend our fear, despair, and forgetfulness. Meditation is not an escape. It is the courage to look at reality with mindfulness and concentration. Thich Nhat Hanh
