Subject: RE: BS: Easter Peep Show
I love that little library peeps page. I'm glad they've left it up. The librarian scolding the peeps looks very much like the associate director of our library. :)

(Today I did her a favor, but the kind that is a little frustrating for the recipient. She called me into her office and pointed at this little text box that had disengaged itself from her Outlook email. It was sitting off to the right and at the top of the screen. She couldn't get it to go back in line and kept hitting the wrong buttons that were now where the old walkabout buttons used to be. "Can you put that back?" I clicked her mouse on the blue bar and dragged it about 3/4 inch and it popped into the line where it should be. It was one of those things that if you don't know about dragging by the blue bar it will drive you nuts, and as I left the room she said "you don't want to know how much time I wasted trying to do that. . . ")

The answer, of course, is that Bill Gates knows, in his heart of hearts, that solving problems keeps our brains young and fends off Alzheimer's, so he designed Windows this way on purpose. Scolding peeps may also help fend off Alzheimer's.
