I finally told Mom about them being wounded. She took it better
than I have! That is why she has made it to 100 !!!
today - 9/16/1903 is her date of birth.
Holy Moly ... Whatta Lady.

Thanks for asking about the boys ... Nathan is still somewhere north of
Baghdad... 101st Airborne so you know he's busy.
Mike is still on the Vinson ... still
wearing the purple shirt. I'm so PROUD of these boys!

i solved the problem by getting a second phone line. i ordered it so
that
it
would only work on local cals--NO LONG-DISTANCE--and that costs about
half
of what the local and long-distance phone line costs.

i have another friend who uses his cell phone as his primary phone
line
and
his landline is only for his computer, again, local calls only. i
would
do
this myself, but i live in a valley surrounded by mountains. the cell
signal
can't get out. so...

Thank you for this post. My news server (optonline) has been driving me
nuts. I sometimes cannot even get posts from the previous day. This is
exactly what I needed.

There are plenty of free access news servers out there.

I am posting this test from one now. freenews.netfront.net

From the list at this link
http://www.free-newsservers.com/free_list1.asp The above server has the
most groups for a server that allows posting, It does not seam to have
the best retention rate for rec. ponds (only 388 messages when I tested
it out today)

You could try my ISPs server (reader2.news.rcn.net) it MAY be READ
ONLY when logged on as a guest. I'm Not sure.

This is a test to see if I can post to: ( reader2.news.rcn.net) while
logged on as a guest.

IF you can read this it means it worked!

If you are using ( freenews.netfront.net ) you should be able to post.
If you are trying to use ( )
user: guest; password: guest.
I do not think you can post.

Well it seemed to work OK!
I just installed "Agent" newsreader to try logging on as a guest.
It DIDN't ask for a username or a password so it seems that you
SHOULD BE ABLE post to ( reader2.news.rcn.net) with no problem.
