Here's my old fogey advice to young whippersnappers: #1: There is no substitute for good tools; #2: Always use the right tool for the job. Linn Westcott, editor emeritus, Model Railroader magazine For example, you should never use needle-nose pliers to turn anything radially unless you don't mind twisting them all to hell. Get a decent set of HOLLOW SHAFT nutdreivers instead. Computers are a tool as well. Save frequently and be sure to back everything up. I keep timed backups and bootable clones of multiple system installs here. I haven't lost anything for years. And don't even think of using those pliers the wrong way. 8D Terry Bowman, KA4HJH "The Mac Doctor" https://www.astarcloseup.com "Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact."—Carl Sagan, Psychology Today, 1996 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
