</I>I don't run Cauldron except to keep an eye on it. My everyday system
is Mga 2 Official. I am getting too senile to be any real use to
anybody, even without inherited depression, winter blues and a winter
infection. It is questionable how much "depression" is only a blue
day, but there are suicides right through my grandmother's ancestors,
including one of her sisters. I am not suicidal, but at present,
life is far from being fun.
Surely this whole "bug" is now history? Whatever the cause was, it
disappeared at the second attempt.
Doug.
