well allright.I guess it must be time to start another weather related
thread here to relieve the boredom.since not one new posting on ANY
subject has appeared for over twelve days
I can only speak for upper middle New Jersey but it has been a strange
winter here
Snow... what snow ?? a maximum snowfall of under 5 inches
Temperature currently in the 50's but a couple of days ago it reached
78 in New York
TIP to convert Fahrenheit to Celcius/Centigrade in google simply type
"x degrees F in degrees C"
the answer will appear
78 degrees Fahrenheit = 25.5555556 degrees Celsius
just one "computer and internet tip"
that I presented at:-
http://www.corfid.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=3;t=000264;p=1#000007
Now where was I? oh yes
it is almost like being down under
and more worrying evidence of global warnming I suppose
Another TIP I read in a UK internet magazine (Web User)
http://www.webuser.co.uk/ concerns annotating files using the
right click>properties>Summary facility
Please see my nice little tutorial at:-
http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/tutorials/file_summary.htm
no more need I say to myself
"what on earth is that picture?"
or "who sent it to me?"
or "what does this program do and where did In find it?"
Anybody got any other cool tips in this unseemly mild weather??

I posted a LIGHTFOOT concert/trip review of a Niagara Fallsview casino
show 14 days ago John. Perhaps you missed it. ;)
The weather was quite nice in Niagara Falls on March 3rd - a beautiful
brisk and sunny day.

Here in Gordtown the 5 inches of snow we had all winter is gone, we've
hit mid 70's this week with no more snow in the forecast.

Hi John,

Here in NB, it's been a strange winter. Practically NO snow at all.
The few inches we had is long gone. It's been mild up to mid January.
Then the cold snap settled in until the end of March. Now it's pretty
normal for this time of year. But mind you I've seen snow storm in
late April in the past... Winter's aren't what they used to be, the
ice bergs are melting, at an alarming speed. Dr. David Suzuki, has
been trying to tell us this for the past 20 years, but people laughed
at him. Now Al Gore has thrown his hat in the rink. Maybe people are
finally starting to get it.

It's snowing here in Northern Maine today, and we're supposed to get light
flurries until Saturday. I don't think it will accumulate much, though. The
temp is supposed to be above freezing every day. Mother Nature is making
sure we don't miss mud season.

Yes for sure Cathy Mud is something that I could do without. Your
going to see JP Cormier pretty soon eh? April 15, It will probably be
the same show he did for us here Nov 18. Your gonna love it. Only one
fiddle tune tho. Very funny man, great guitar playing. He had a 12
string Guild I think Im not sure, but a 6 string YAMAHA cutaway. A
fiddle an a mandolin. Please let me know about the concert. OK?

Mom was going to come up and go to the concert with me, but I guess she's
changed her mind. I gotta remember to ask my Aunt Louise if she wants to go.
Thanks for reminding me!
