Every time the Cat goes down, I'm glad that I bookmarked the Mudcat Help & Trouble Forum beforehand. There you can see that others are aware of the problem, there are bits and snippets of other information and you can say HI! Makes it a lot easier to do without my regular fix.

Do we really need a thread for every little flutter in the cat???

Man, I thought John Ashcroft was behind it. Now ain't that a terrible thing to have pop into one's head as a first thought? Man, these Bushites got this ol' hillbilly a tad on the paranoid side these days.

Nice to have the joint back...

I tend to agree with you CH, but it now seems the "PEL" threads outnumber the "Mudcat Burped" threads so I doubt if complaining about it will help.................

Mudcat is like the weather...it is so much a part of life that it DOES get it's comings & goings discussed....It's not a matter of 'need'

Is there anything more pedantic than discussing the weather?

People talk about the weather because they feel like talking about something they have in common but which isn't likely to cause a fight. That's assuming they aren't in a mood for a fight - but if you're really in a mood for a fight you can fight about the weather easy enough.

It's winter, it's supposed to be cold, unless you're an Ausralian or something. Last week here was as cold as I've known it - apparently global warming works the other way for this part of the world, because it shifts the Gulf Stream or something. I blame that Bush character. He's obviously doing it on purpose, insofar as he does anything on purpose rather than by some kind of blind instinct.

I thought Max might have been moving. He did warn us that this would happen one of these days.

At the moment in Sydney today, it's 36 degrees C - bloody hot!

Yes, I wondered about Max, too. I seem to remember he said he might have to shut it down at some stage to make changes.

Although I didn't like not being able to get on, I actually had a lot to do to get ready for a BBQ, so it forced me to get on with it.

MGoH: "It's winter, it's supposed to be cold, unless you're an Ausralian or something. "
No, winter is cold in Australia as well, they just have it at a different time of year! Now if you had said 'January's supposed to be cold...'
