RS> Funny, could have sworn that your line all along was 'why are you

KR> now, rodney old son, would you care to explain your huge leap of
KR> logic here?

No dad, no leap of logic to explain there.

KR> just because i use ppoint, it doesn't mean that it has to be the problem,

Never said it was Keith. I had moved on to a quite different point. When
we were starting off with PQWK, you essentially said 'why fart around
like that, PPoint is all anyone needs'. Turns out that you dont appear
to take your own advice, if indeed the duping wasnt due to PPoint and
you were doing something else other than doing a no brainer installation
of PPoint and using it. No different to what we were doing in fact,
deciding that PPoint alone isnt enough, we wanted more. Funny that.

KR> if you drop ppoint, bink, and a fossil in a directory, and just let
KR> ppoint get on with it there are no hassles at all, old bob could get
KR> it right first time.   (-8

I severely doubt that, Bob can comprehensively stuff everything he
touches, even all the projects out of electronics mags that 10 year old
kids can handle |-)

Anyway, yes, I agree that PPoint is mostly a no brainer. But my new
point was a quite different one. We were saying then that PPoint wasnt
enough for us, thats why we didnt use it and used PQWK instead. You
maintained PPoint was all we would need. You now appear to be attempting
more than just the no brainer installation of PPoint for some reason.
Maybe the same reason we chose to go with PQWK, coz the no brainer of
PPoint wasnt enough.

KR> as this will be the last post (tadahhh tadahhh) that i make for some
KR> time,

Oh mi gawd, 'I am just going for a short walk, I may not be back for
some time', dont do it Keith, the blizzard will get you.

KR> i will tell you the story. are you sitting comfortably?

Yep, one of the few certaintys in life, I always do sit comfortably when
computing.

KR> due to my huge talents being in so much demand, i have been working 12
KR> hours a day leaving little time to read mail. i was therefor using my
KR> lunchtime at work to read it on my home machine via pcanywhere. as
KR> there is some difficulty in getting two comms programs to work on the
KR> same machine at the same time without 2 modems, i was using my work
KR> machine to  do the actual down, and uploads, and transferring the
KR> packets home via the aforesaid pcanywhere. work a treat too except
KR> that i forgot to delete the outgoing packets from the home machine so
KR> when i did a connect from there they got sent again.

And if you hadnt been using that dog of a PPoint, you could have just
moved the QWK between the machines, the sort of no brainer than even you
could have done without stuffing it up |-)
