	As long as they are only "moments". it is no problem. But it was not one of
these that had me leave the unit at home last time. It was because I left a box
home as most of all it contained was judged not required. Is it the same ?

	The just above was my question. Again, will it regain its usefullness when
flushed or is the damage permanent ?

	I am all for the automatic things being done, save for MS Updates, that is. I
have not yet installed IE-8 on this machine, as a matter of fact, I just
installed TB, see tear.

	Did I really leave this impression, I hope not. As you might recall that I had
troubles before with a Mustek scanner on XPP and Vista will not see my Lexmark
Z33 but uses the Z600 fine.

	Yes, it is mostly the rubber hardening. In the case of this HP 6L, it was the
hold back pads that were not "rubbery" enough anymore, these prevent the next
sheet to be fed, they were not holding it back anymore.

	They have a problem with the Canada geese on golf courts. Suits me fine. The
Snow ones stick mostly to wetland and the shores of the St-Lawrence. We are in
the clear. Alan should have a story on the myriads of geese in the Vancouver
parks. Street people will cull a few but never enough, it seems.
