Wow, never heard of that one yet. lol Do not mind those well intentioned acquaintances who just send text messages. Can always delete, delete, delete, time again. That is time consuming but not too hard to deal with. Then there are times when folks sending their graphics, photos, cartoons, etc have actually locked up my system. I also try to tell friends via a short email, in advance, that I will be sending an attachment. As to the plain text email, believe it or not, that recent tale about the dates/times being so unique....got that one from over 50 people within two days. At least we're protected from that in our genealogy "Lists" -- Nancy M. Meyers, Lorain OH
