  Link to MLCAD Homepage on MLCAD Group Page
 
Todd, The link to the MLCad Home Page on the MLCad NewsGroup Page is no longer correct... (although it IS still pointing people to the new page, for now ) The new link is (URL) Lynch (23 years ago, 3-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Very very delayed reply (boy oh boy)... But point in case - I don't subscribe to any groups. I read them on the web - I like it better that way! -Shiri (23 years ago, 3-Jul-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Randomly generated acronyms (was: Re: The commonfolk's FAQ)
 
(...) Or maybe on each parent group page, so that would be 52 places. Personally I only go into about 10 of those, so it wouldn't be so bad. KDJ ___...___ LUGNETer #203, Windsor, Ontario, Canada (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Randomly generated acronyms (was: Re: The commonfolk's FAQ)
 
(...) Yeah.... plus, people wouldn't encounter acronyms directly on the front page anyway! It's the newsgroups where they appear frequently. Still, I'd get kinda annoyed if there was an acronym on every news page. Maybe on the news' front page? (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The commonfolk's FAQ
 
(...) That's sounds pretty cool. I would go even farther and have a randomly selected acronym appear on any newsgroup page on LUGNET, say at the top or something. It would be just like the taglines that used to appear on BBS's in "The Old Days". By (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The commonfolk's FAQ
 
Hi Eric! Don't apologize for getting off-track - I was just confused whether you misread my post, or I misread yours. ;-) (...) Wow! I like that. Once it got coded, it would be no extra work to post it "every week" or whatever. I think that *in (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The commonfolk's FAQ
 
Crossposted to admin.general (...) <snip> While I can't take credit for Duane's great idea this is even better than what I was thinking. I was thinking just a post with an allready defined Acronym once a week to keep the visability of the page up in (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.general)

The last thing I updated was some security-related stuff but that was downloaded and installed by Windows Update - I have Windows 98 installed here. -- Cheers ... Geoffrey Hyde "Ross Crawford" <rcrawford@csi.com> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Weird error trying to load lugnet main page?
 
(...) I often have this problem on the start-up page when I first start IE (my start-up page isn't Lugnet though), but after that no problems. I think it's more likely to be a client (ie IE) problem. Have you installed or updated anything on the PC (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Weird error trying to load lugnet main page?
 
I have a URL: that reads for lugnet like this: (URL) have to click refresh in my browser before the page will load or IE5 brings back a 'page cannot be found' error. This also happens as often as not, IE it's intermittent. What is happening and what (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
