Gary,
My first job was as a copy boy at the San Francisco Chronicle for a dollar an hour. Our two bedroom cottage was 75 dollars a month. Do you remember when we waltzed to the Souza Band? [My wasn’t the music grand!} While I am wasting your collective time, can anyone explain why, having deleted over 5000 messages from my outlook, and emptied the deleted items file, and restarted Outlook, and reloaded my C: drive, I have LESS space on my hard disk than before? Yeah. I know. The rest of you have day jobs. Nicholas S.
