Bob, I know the feeling. I attribute all this to recently acquiring a pair of progressive bifocals. Several months ago I wrote a letter to someone explaining how to open an attached file, and I referred to the icon as an @ symbol. DH looked at my letter and said, "Good grief Gail that is not an @, that is a paper clip!" I am one of those ppl who didn't need glasses when I was younger so I have found it a trifle difficult to become accustomed to them. I really like them now though except for using a microfilm reader. About a month ago my Hamblen Co.TN film arrived and I rushed over to my neightbor and genealogical buddy's to read it. Pretty soon my neck was killing me. I couldn't figure out what was wrong until my friend told me it was my bifocals. I have decided that I need one of those readers that they have at the FHC or my genealogy society that casts the picture down in front of you!! However, I am afraid that the price might be prohibitive, and it might just take up more room in the office than we could spare! (Big Grin) We have just gotten done reorganizing the office, and Bruce brought me in and showed me the fiche reader (previously lying on its side on a chair) sitting in its own little space. Furthermore I am no longer sitting here hemmed in by two printers and a scanner and I can actually move my elbows. Maybe I should just count my blessings. BBFN Gail (possum)
