OT: *Ping* Learning Richard

Richard,

You are a prolific poster obviously and I believe you use Google Groups
Beta as your newsreader, is that correct? If so, how quickly do you
find it to post messages? Is it immediate or does it take hours? How
do you keep track of threads you participate in or want to watch? I've
tried using Google Groups Beta and find it extremely cumbersome. Why
did you settle on this one? Thanks.

By the way, how is your old Toyota holding up?

--
No matter what happens someone will find a way to take it too seriously.

Google groups flies. Just make sure you're logged in as yourself....
and you have to have a css-compliant browser for all of the widgets.

Heh... those roads are a mess around there! It would've been quicker
to take the interstate the whole way.

PA has some of the worse roads in the country. We also have some of the best
backroads for corner carving, though.

What's up with that Starbuck's on the turnpike, right there by uh, you
know... 220/76? never seen a set up quite like that. Saw a BMW 550
station wagon with a big W on it.

nothing in particular -- it was just interesting to see a starbucks in
one of those turnpike emporium exits.

I remember the days of Stuckey's... what has this country come to?
