   Sheesh Adam, didn't your Mother tell you not to play with strange bugs   
   like that?     I'm sure your nephrologist did too.      Get better,   
   and stop scaring people this way.

   Which distro?   Your Mageia setup was fine (nothing open) as I recall.   
      
   Kind of scary how RELATIVELY easy it is, no?   Rather useful thing to   
   have as well.   
      
   Quick update for you - "Taz" didn't work out, and had to be returned.   
   The replacement is a domestic shorthair named "Emma", mainly gray with   
   some muted black stripes, ~2 years old, looking very much like a young   
   "Smokie".  She's _REALLY_ pushing Good Sam's buttons, but so far he   
   hasn't tried to kill her. (He's asked me if it would be OK several   
   times - I've told him "No" and so far, he's grudgingly accepted that.)   
   Marg is somewhat egging Sam on though.  ;-)
