If you need a cure for a room full of Macs (to keep this on topic) that has heated up way to far, like mine yesterday - it was knocking on for 27C in my room (about 74F) and that's hot if you live in the UK, god knows what it was outside, easily into the 90F range. I find nothing more pleasing than a cold glass of Stella Artios (that's pronounced Artwaarr) lager. It's french so it actually tastes of something and it's the perfect foil to a good barbecue. Curiously enough, although the Irish/American population would likely kill me for this, is that Guinness is actually quite nice cold, I think it's just 'cause I drink London Guinness and it's a different pint entirely. I still need to take that trip to Cork with a couple of light aircraft and bring back some casks of real Guinness :). Man - it's only 9:30 and already it's starting to heat up here again. I'm off into town to buy some Stella :), I wonder if my SE/30 would like some Muahhhahahahahahahaaaa!! -- -- Mark Benson Any spelling errors are attributed to PEBKAC Vintage Macs List Nanny SilValleyPirate - AIM silicon_valley_pirate_uk - Yahoo!
