Glad to have you back!

Make sure that you use you old name (Hiredhand) not (hiredhand). That way you get to pick up your old points.

Or you could just use Texas_Booster as a folding name. Works for me!

OOPS...thanks for reminding me of that! I wondered why my stats weren’t moving! I’ll change it NOW. :-)

Remember, when in doubt, set your UserName to Egon.

Very sneaky.... though I would suggest that Ken_in_Texas is a much better choice. :-)

Check out this thread over at the F@H forums. Sounds like your monitor is needed outside of FR.

Heh. Could be!

I'm almost brave enough to announce it over there-- but not quite. A few hundred machines hitting my server-- not a problem-- several thousand? <gulp>

Please check out these two threads regarding potential insight into the disease.

It really is a great cause, and it costs little but some occasional attention and a little electricity.
