     With an XX..
     by Janis Kracht 1:261/38, janis@filegate.net

     I thought it was really funny that HP actually refused to
     service that fellows system because it was as they said,
     infused with cat hair ...  Poor guy..  meanwhile if someone
     took a look at MY system, which has been running non-stop
     for several years (!), they'd probably puke.  Now and again
     I do have to open the box to perhaps check a card, etc.
     and I am met with the equivalent of several puffs of dogs
     and cats, lining the interior of my computer..  yes, the
     fan gets it the worst Lol..  but still, the system keeps on
     going like the proverbial Energizer Bunny..  oh no, another
     furry creature :) Anyway, follow the link in the article to
     the original tale..  it's incredible.  How HP can turn
     their own system bug into a "customer-caused" problem is
     beyond me.  Hopefully the fellow will be be able to shame
     HP into replacing that system.

     Sometimes you have to shame people into doing or saying
     the right thing..  it's something that happens when all of
     a sudden something is brought out into the light so that no
     'stories' can be told regarding it..

     Recently a good friend of mine, Carol Shenkenberger, was
     accused of being a ..  well..  'non-technical' member of the
     FTSC.  I've known Carol for ages, and for sure, I've seen
     some of the documents she's worked on during her tenure as
     an FTSC member.  It makes me laugh when people call this
     old salt non-technical (no insult meant there, sis <g>)).
     This woman's resume and her technical accomplishments would
     probably make some men's resume's shake <hehe>

     I relax in the fact that she's there, a part of the
     picture, doing the drudge work that we rely on in
     documenting our current practice in fidonet.  Thanks Carol.
