Thanks for your comments Jack and your suggestion. It wasn't too long ago that I acquiesced to a similar suggestion from an online friend to expand the length of my messages. I understand the point you are making about the browser and notepad. Maybe, in doing a little bit more sharing than I normally would, I should explain that as I have a spinal cord injury in my neck, and am losing the dexterity of my arms and hands, I allow the PC to do a bit more for me than I might if I weren't in this situation. From your signature line it suggests you may know something of such an injury where central to both arms. So you see folks, a willingness to come back with a comment brings about a better understanding. As you say Jack, a Rickochet [sic] effect can have its problems.
