Thanks for that....I guess we'll have something else to blame the under capacity of broadband on.


From what I understand commercial account will receive priority over regular user accounts, so if you pay more you'll have service. wink.gif

Unfortunately all I could do from home is answer the occasional question and, while I do get some, this would hardly keep me busy!  My job is too "hands-on" for this to work!  I don't know what to do about the SWINE accept keep on plugging.  I'd take the shot for it if I could get it!

Don't worry! There's still "hope!" rolleyes.gif

Get a large dispenser of bacteria-killing hand wash and a small bottle for every one in the family. Keep the small bottles with you and use them as often as you shake hands with some one, after using a public phone/door knob/handle. Stay away from the age groups most at risk, if possible. Keep your fingers out of your eyes/nose/mouth (you may have to learn to eat with a fork) Avoid leaving home as much as possible. Make everyone stay in their own rooms, when home, till next April. Wear a maskNo, that might make some policemen nervous... wink.gif

Seriously, there are disposable wipes that can be used on keyboards... eek2.gif

And the United States = The Banana system
CAUTION! Childhood vaccinations cause adults! :yes:

I agree...those little buggers really know how to carry a germ. wink.gif

I haven't had a cold in 20 years so I'm not feeling threatened at the moment.

I use hand cleaner to the point where it starts to strip my skin off; and I can't really stay away from kids.  The problem is that hand sanitizer doesn't kill viruses; the things that kill viruses aren't very good for your hands.  You have to wash viruses off of your hands with lots of running water.
