So many comments :)<BR/><BR/><B>Ken</B> - if you're on blogger it's pretty easy to add .. just ask if you need extra instructions.<BR/><BR/><B>JJ</B> - it's a good thought, and I hope to make some money from my bestselling "Beat blackboxing in a weekend" recovery handbook ;)<BR/><BR/><B>Cas</B> - oh baby, you do blub easily at times. The photos look amazing - can't wait to actually sniff it at the launch!<BR/><BR/><B>Drak</B> - glad to be of service sir. Tea spitting induction is only one of a range we provide. You are SO right about the 1-0 thing ... yup, very little binary about people really. Especially the ones who understand the joke about there only being 10 kinds of people ... those who are laughing right now and those who haven't a clue what I'm on about.<BR/><BR/><B>Sheepish</B> - so many cuddles. Great to see you back and sharing, because we've been thinking of you a lot in our little household. Good luck, with the copy / paste thing and so much more. x<BR/><BR/><B>Misssy M</B> - I'm not sure one person can do a standing ovation, but you could get me an ovaltine instead? <BR/><BR/><B>Virtual voyage</B> - ok ... now you're scaring me! I've already upgraded my server twice since this started ... eek! And 'bloxxing' - genius!<BR/><BR/><B>AGWB</B> - thanks :) Add away ... the more people the better the connections ... <BR/><BR/><B>Dave</B> - you're welcome anytime.<BR/><BR/><B>Nik</B> - thanks for stopping by :) Loved what you say on your blog about the knife poem thing - anyone who is in favour of the banning should be automatically ruled out of the marking process ...<BR/><BR/>Hi <B>tea n crumpets</B> - god, that's scary isn't it? How quick stuff changes ...

Can you imagine people of Alexander Graham Bells' day hearing that one day teenagers would spend their years on the phone?<BR/><BR/>I don't blackbox, but you are right-- real life is what you are living. This is life. You adapt or not. Maybe one day the world will relive the '1980's like we like to join SCA or period reenactment groups and have more face-to-face contact.Tea N.
