What a crazy 10 days... It all started 10/12/01.
..couldn't make it to the WASHNUG meeting, bad karma...

..on Tue, 10/16/01, my main 32 meg. card gets a -10606 error, then
reboots, then the card needs to reformat. At least I had a backup but 10
days old. :-( But card was reset with only loss of some email and 108
pkgs. I got mad and reinstalled what I could. Sorry Victor but the count
was 1155 pkgs. as of 10/16/01 11:59 pm PST.
..on Thur., 10/18/01, we had our 15th. meeting at Apple Store in Glendale
at 7:30 pm, extended to a nearby restraurent. After exchanging hundreds of
pkgs. we finally left for home...at 2:30 AM! Our longest meeting so far.
..on Fri., 10/19/01, recovering from beamitis, trying to make room on my
32 meg. card for newer pkgs., I got a -10011 error. ARRGGGGGHHH!!! But I
had a simple solution. Thanks to SBM's Utilities, I was able to make a
card-to-card backup of the corrupted 32 meg. card. As I prepared to
restore I unchecked the one pkg. that caused the -10011 error. Whew, now
I'm back in business and currently 1127 pkgs. with 2 megs. left.
..on Sun., 10/22/01, restarted doing backups on my sister's iMac, my first
(-1) connection error in 6 years of NCU'ing. Wow. At least SBM's
Utilities isn't so finicky. I'll figure it out. Hopefully Mon. will be
the end of not attending the WASHNUG meeting. Be forewarned, don't miss a
Newton Meeting!!! ;-)
BTW, I did a newtonbook straight thru Newtscape in long portrait format of
Tony Blair's speech, only for MP2000 and MP2100's. I'll try to send it to
one or more server archives. Geezz, it's 4:25 am, I gotta walk the dog...
