Hal:

Fixed the outlook, seems a sticky bit of bad script was always resetting
my "plain text" setting back to html... was a bugger to trace down and
get rid of... all spyware/virus scanners here would not detect it...
thanks for bearing with me...

Warmest regards,
John

I was outdoors with a portable radio -
I happened to walk under one of those telephone-pole guy wires
and the signal increased dramatically.
It increaded more
when I placed the telescoping antenna
on the guy wire.
it was magic

by the way -
you oughta change your do-hickie program
to send text-only
instead of html
to the newsgroup

========

No, I can barely walk using a cane, I'm nearly blind, I have severe
carpal tunnel in both wrists, nerve damage in my left arm, diabetes and
high blood pressure along with tinitus so bad that the whistling wakes
me up. What's your excuse?

Well, lay off the pain medication man, it mess with your attitude--but,
by the way--I take no pleasure in your illness--hope it improves.... no
matter our disagreements, I take NO pleasure in anothers' misfortunes
and/or illness... frown

Warmest regards,
John

Actually, it may be, and it may have had nothing to do with that guy
wire/ground wire you were visually looking at (well, not directly--and
it serving as an antenna)...


Some traveling-wave antennas are wired "directly" to
ground at the far end. We are dealing with distributed
RF networks, not DC circuits. A DC ground wire 1/4WL
long is usually NOT an RF ground at all.

If one installs artificial ground circuitry between the
radio antenna and the ground rod, one can either attenuate
the signal or not depending upon the settings of the
artificial ground.

I don't take any pain medication. The strongest one I was prescribed
was Naproxen, but the doctor switched it to prescription Tylenol which
is useless so I don't take anything.

I think I got it now Cecil, my newsreader kept changing and setting
settings, it would keep turning back on html instead of plain text, and
turn on a "stationary" back ground (pretty pictures)--it would just
ignore sending the message in plain text... a file msfix.xml had set an
"email template" to do this, I have two outlooks, reg outlook and
outlook2002--because on installing office XP, one sending though
another--won't bore you with more details--deleting that file cured
it... I think I picked up something from my "fans" which email me... it
happens and I learned something... grin

Warmest regards,
John

This is a typical Trolling response. "I don't care if I'm obnoxious in
