Almost every day...prior to late December....unless you hadn't
noticed....oz.org is unable to resolve tig.melbourne.oz.org any
longer....maybe it's just a touchy feely thing for within ihug.....they
don't want to confuse you maybe...?  LOL

There's THAT word again...ALMOST...seems a big part of what you are
about...never quite making the grade!  LOL

Netsplits are a constant part of oz.org...unfortunately...but undeniably.
There are other more reliable networks, but none quite so popular. But
then....one day you will hopefully ALMOST get the hang of these things
Jason.

AND ARE YOU EVER GOING TO FIX THAT DISTORTED SIGNATURE BLOCK OF YOURS....or
does it look okay on a Mac?
