Anyone else not getting all posts? In two or three threads lately I've
missed some of the posts.

I've taken to subscribing my newsgroups thru supernews. It costs me
$5.95 every month, but now for the FIRST time, I have ALL of
uk.rec.gardening posts....ALL of what's available of rec.gardens posts,
and ALL of the available alt.binaries.pictures.gardens posts (that are
still there, which are way more than what my provider, VIC was letting
thru.) That's just my opinion, I love supernews. Now if I could just
get used to Mozilla's Thunderbird program, figure out why my microsuck's
program's are screwing up and not allowing me to do simple things (I
can't even get my Canon digital program to allow me to download my
pictures into my Paint Shop Pro folders. I've had massive computer
problems these last two weeks that started out with Squire's computer
frying, which I am networked thru. Replaced the power supply which cost
me $107, then MY computer refused to recognize the ISDN modum, my hard
drive ran out of space, we installed a back up extra hard drive which
ALSO ran outa space, and on top of all that, when all my programs and
files were transferred to the new drive, they duplicated my digital
folders and files not once, but FOUR times! I've been in computer hell
now for two weeks. thank gods that I can at least USE my computer and
hook up to the internet now. All I have to do is wait another week for
Squire to return home from the road and figure out why I can't spell
check, can't highlight texts and copy or correct words.......find out
why I can't download my pictures into the folders like I could
before........arghhhhhhhhhhhh.

But try Supernews. it's really efficient. Hopefully I'll sit still for
a bit and write a much needed garden ramble. I missed you guys!
