  Re: Lugnet for beginners
 
(...) Glad ta hear that. (Frank, glad I can count you in, BTW). But, Todd, why are all your posts creating new threads? This is off-topic yet it makes it hard to follow the thread... a bug maybe? -Shiri (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Factoring going off line for a while
 
(...) Well -- hey -- better yet, what if the server said, "Hey, Hi! You seem to be using a machine that you haven't used before. Store a cookie with your info?" (With, of course, a "don't ask again" checkbox if you say 'no'...) --Todd (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
