I have been down the better part of a week with bad cells in my hard drive.
Had to get a new computer and lost some of the data on file, including some
incoming e-mails. If anyone out there is looking for a response from me and
has not received it, please resend to my e-mail address at
[log in to unmask] Lesson learned. It may take time and be a pain, but
always back up your important files on a floppy, or now they have those zip
drives. Especially if you have your shell collection listed in a data base.
The thought of having to obtain and reenter all that data is mind boggling.
