Thanks to Sparky!
« on: July 25, 2023, 06:04:17 PM »
Just wanted to publicly say thanks to Sparky (and to Brett Buck who advised him of my problem) for getting me back on Stunthangar after my neanderthal computer decided it'd seen enough of "toy airplanes" (my computer is NOT well informed!) and took it upon itself to rip out my access.

When Brett gave up trying to massage it gently he called Sparky and within milli-moments I was back on the Stunthangar bandwagon like I'd never been booted off!

Thanks guys!  Appreciate your help.

Ted

Hey Ted, both Roberta and I so much missed you and Shareen at the Nats banquet. You have to believe me when I say it was a very special occasion. Hopefully we can catch up sometime in the future, perhaps at next years world champs. I will certainly do my best to try and be there.
I see people my age out there climbing mountains and zip lining and here I am feeling good about myself because I got my leg through my underwear without losing my balance

Has the A.I. uprising started at Ted’s house?

   That is not the internet providers, that is your good pal Microsoft, screwing up your machine in your house to your detriment. You probably thought you owned your computer, you don't, Microsoft is effectively leasing it to you, don't do what they want, you are out of business.

   Ted does not have that problem, he is using MacOS. There, at least, you do get a choice - for now.
