hopeful letter

"Uffe

still no answer

he emailed me today and all is well. he did lose internet service but should be back today. all is well and he thanks you guys for worrying about him. that's damn good news. it's not like this is a kid's group.

ah thats good, i know if i call him and its engaged i know hes on the internet as he has dial up...but with no one answering thats not like him..

i was gonna fone him 9am uk...just to wake him up and see if he was still breathing.

i think he may be doing better than dial up. i didn't press for details being busy with relief. his family can be of concern but that's not a topic here. do you still have my email, jules? give it a shot so i can re-index yours? we need a better support sytem, perhaps.

He has DSL if I remember. The email address I used for him was from that type of service.

Good news :-)

right, but that went south and he has a new service. it's dsl too. he say he had 159 messages! mostly spam. he should be smiling here again soon.

yeah, for a change.

Gosh, folks, I'm feeling a little embarrassed to read all of this. I had DSL up until 2004 but when the kids moved out it went and I was on dial-up. I just lost that about a month ago and was awaiting the son's promise of re-connecting me to his DSL. If you're surrounded by the natives and cut off don't count on my son to get the cavalry to the rescue in time. ;)

So what's happened? I wasn't going to go into it but my mother passed away Jan.1 at the age of 95 and there have been lots of domestic changes. Sorry, Jules but the phone numbers changed here and you'll have to contact me by the vze3 address for the new one. Since I'm on DSL you won't be getting any busy signals anymore unless I'm yakking with someone else.

Thanks everyone and sorry I didn't get to alert anyone about my dropping off the face of the world.

I did manage to actually spend some quality time at the workbench. Maybe I can get something finished this year.
