[Hallicrafters] test

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Glad to hear it Gary.

An ISP at fault? And admitting it? If Jimmy The Greek were among the living 
book makers, i wonder what odds he would put on that one Gary? Picture in 
your mind: A guy in a pair of dress charcoal gray slacks, white shirt with 
button down collar and french cuffs, narrow black silk tie, gold plated U.S. 
Mint Quarter Eagle ($2.50 coin, Eagle = $10, Half Eagle = $5 etc.), nice 
sport coat with very light plaid with light silver gray vertical threads 
over a darker gray background, black dress shoes with a mirror-like shine 
and Blues Bros. style glasses with silver frames, gold hinges and a slight 
sun shade tint. A serious look on his face as he glances around the room 
with CRT displays flashing more warnings than you can hear on CB channel 19 
when a trucker spots Smokey The Bear lurking on an overpass! Servers with 
parts hanging out with some other pieces imbedded in the cieling, smoke 
rolling out of
 several computers, a 3.5 inch drive spitting the emergency boot disc out 
like a kid flinging a Frisby and a multiple-CD unit firing data discs like a 
'roaring twenties' grease gun slinging Lead! "No sir, our servers are 
operating perfectly fine. Nothing is down and the incoming e-mail is just 
flying through the system. Better check your Outlook Ex-Lax settings to see 
if someone has unchecked the box marked "always charge my credit card $25 if 
I call Tech Support with a question containing more than three words". What 
they do not tell you Gary, is that if you do uncheck that box, the system 
will reboot, erase your hard drive and then reformat it with the European 
version of MS XP VE, or Vatican Edition, done in an ancient dialect of Latin 
that pre-dates King Tut!
