Hi there, sorry you're not feeling well... if you think it's a cold, I can heartily recommend Cold-Eeze lozenges. They help get rid of the virus quicker than the average cold lasts.

You mentioned problems with the CDRW drives in your classroom... it could be the speed for which the blank disks you're using are certified. We have relatively new computer systems with high-speed CDRW drives, and we found that if we tried using our old blank disks with the new drives, they wouldn't work. We had to buy some new blanks that were certified to work with high-speed drives. The errors were very odd, and at first made us think that the drives were bad.

Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks Bear, I'll check into that. With being new to teaching, learning to do lesson plans, learning to actually stand in front of a room and teach etc. I usually put stuff like the system problems on the back burner. But, it's very frustrating and something that I've got to address more as I get into this classroom teaching bit.
