Robert,

 RW> winserver.org does have its moments when it doesnt want to receive
 RW> email. however, robertwolfe.org is on a VPS, so unless they are having
 RW> issues, email should always flow through there.

  OK, it's rare I have to send messages to my hubs/connects.

 RW> *nods*  Yeah, it looks like we are going to have a decent day today, so
 RW> after I take care of my birthday stuff and all today, might go out for
 RW> a ride on the 'zuki today after i put the new brakes and the u sb ports
 RW> on him today (to keep my phone charged wile i use it as my GPS while
 RW> riding *grin*).

  I've used a GPS when I've been mobile, but I rarely travel outside
central Arkansas anymore. Have a happy birthday...and eat some cake
for the rest of us. :)

 RW> I totally understand.  I was havign my robertwolfe.org email hosted
 RW> through GMail, but I did not need the $30/month bill, so i gfi found a
 RW> vps provider that only charges me $6/month for what I need, so I built
 RW> out my own email server and run it there.  https://www.interserver.net.

  I'll take another look at it sometime this fall. I hate having to shut
things down for inclement weather.

  Speaking of which...

1) As we approach the hurricane season, more areas are being watched.
One area is forecast to form off the Carolinas, but move out to sea.
A second area may affect areas of the Caribbean, before going into
central America. Two other areas are in the eastern Atlantic, and it's
too early to know what their fate will be.

2) Depending on which version of The Farmer's Almanac you like, it
could be a good or bad winter. We haven't had much of a winter in
the central Arkansas area in over 3 years, and I feel we're overdue.
