Don't worry about it. I just had a talking to by NautiNurse, suggesting that I refrain from posting graphics larger than 50k. Some peoples ISP connections at this time are tenuous at best. They may be able to maintain a connection indefinitely, until their pipe gets chugged. Once they lose their ISP connection, they may never get it back again (since they might not get a dial tone back due to all the emergency traffic).

May I suggest that those of us who can host do so and utilize HTML IMG height/width SRC= paramaaters? Furthermore, we could also implement the embedded mouse over context balloon (thereby showing a link to either the source and/or full sized image (IMG SRC= size can be intimated either in the balloon and/or posted text)?

That's just my $0.02 1/2. I'm certain we can find some way to get along with each other's needs at this critical juncture in time.

For those of you who, at this time, are heading off into 12 hours of darkness (and for the most part an unimaginable terror - quite imaginable to me only in I am a 1980 David survivor), my prayers are with you. I pray that you all remain in His grip (Psa 33:3,4). I pray that flying things will avoid you, and that you stay out of the way of those flying things that are obdurate in that regard.

TO ALL IN DENNIS' fury: In 12 hours time, I will be attending Lord's supper services and I will be presenting all of your collective plights before the Lord's throne (at His feet) for His consideration. WHEREVER you may find yourself tomorrow morning (whether it be in a shelter/basement/bar/strip joint or perhaps even a house if ill repute), I urge you to remember what He did for you on the cross (while you were still a sinner and before reforming from all that). All believers are not only mere priests, but royal priests, and as such are authorized to conduct the Lord's Supper for all believers in the efficacy of Christ's death. Worship and praise Him for His death on our behalf. All it takes is some form of bread, and something made out of grapes that can be drunk (it doesn't have to be wine).

For those of you who feel inadequate in that regard, or feel not led by the Spirit to do that, consider tomorrow morning what Mark described in Chapter 4 (verses 35-41).

Nevertheless, I will be praying for all of you guys (the concept of doing so for so many millions boggles my mind's eye).

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
-Phi 4:6-9
