Dear Liz and others with posting problems, First, I wish to share that I called AOL techs three times between Saturday and Monday about a new problem, and to complain about undelivered mail. All were in the Philippines. It is not a good way to reach a manager with my complaints about undelivered mail. I demanded an American manager call me this morning, but the phone does not ring....
My senior center guru who comes to the house when computer problems arise, has strongly recommended I not use Windows 10. And, I can see all these funny characters in Liz's and other's memos. It is getting worse and worse. Avital: reference to a lace-digest number on the subject line does not give a way to look up our lace subjects. These features are not good for our Arachne archives going forward!! (I have added Lace Identification to this memo of mine. Liz mentioned the adaptations lacemakers made to 19th C. laces, a subject Devon introduced a few days ago. A long time ago, I wrote to Arachne how difficult it would be to satisfactorily identify 20th C. laces - since many of you are creatively branching out and mixing lace techniques in your work. This creativity is a very good thing, but - whenever possible - please write about your laces and how they came about, whenever possible to keep with your collected laces. Your own documentation will be welcomed - in the future. Whenever I trim messages, I use ....... to indicate text has been removed, as you can see in Liz's message below this.

Computers!!!!! ðŸËÅ Still, they keep us in touch, so I must not complain!! As to the changes in various laces over time ââ¬â well, they did not have books to tell themà what to do, and how to do it, -- and few of them could read, anyway, - so they just invented their own way to overcome problems. Then they may have shown someone else what they did, and it became ââ¬Ålawââ¬Â!! Liz. In Very hot Mellbourne,.
