Just talk, March 5

I am writing this on a computer at my local library.   My 12 year old desktop (that's about 90 in human years) finally decided to cash in it's chips.  I have everything backed up, sort of, ---my backup drive somehow saved every thing in a file format the computer that did the backup refuses to recognize.  I'll be shopping for a new machine and then setting it up for about a week, I guess.  Expect me back then.   Wish me luck!       Mike
