Now my memory is fading, what is the name of that third party product which could intercept x37 abends and then dynamically fix it for you? >Unlike some other memories, nobody will miss the "good old days."

At least, that's what people used to tell their kids who >rode those cushy heated (FSVO "heated," at least in Maine) buses, right? Right. In my child days, we were so poor, we have: 1. Running water - you run outside to get water using your pail and your feet. 2. cold and hot water - cold in the winter, hot in the summer. 3. shools have a tree structure - you just sit under a tree. 4. good transport - donkey car, cycle or just walking. 5. excellent entertainment - you just play outside. 6. But food was at least good - no junk food like those fast take aways. 7. I wish I could remember the rest, but my memory is fading... ;-) John, thanks for your kind and educational posts. I really value them. Please continue sharing your wisdom.
