I noticed that the direction of the stars change when I move my curser.

When you get older, you start to experience (in your vision) what your eye doctor calls "floaters".
For those of you who weren't born when the Seven series was, "floaters" are small black specs that
appear to "float" in the middle of your field of vision, no matter where you look.
You have NO idea how happy I was, just now, to discover these/this was a software/virus issue, not
just one more thing going wrong with the ol' bod

OK, from your comment, since I am the same age as my SWB AND - know what floaters are - and have experienced plenty of them; does that make me OLD??? Oh, yeah, I guess I am getting up there a bit - though everything is relative...

I figured it was a JAVAscript, but frankly had forgotten to even look for it... :?

If you want to feel young (at least by comparison) then just keep hanging around this joint.

Hell, even I manage to feel young in this crowd! :mrgreen:

Really, in CA is snows frozen water. What is this thing that you call heavier?

Oh, you could have meant more heavily. But then it occurs to me that I fell for it. OK, you got me again Rob.

No, Duane, I really did mess that one up. I even thought about grammar and sentence structure before I clicked on Submit.

Oh well, got me again. ;)

I've been wondering what all the fuss was about. Said I: what the heck is everybody talking about, I haven't seen any snowflakes in my browser?

Then today while browsing Boxerworks I saw some snowflakes start to fall, for about 2 seconds. Then they went away.

As 00 would say: WTF?
It's all downhill from here. Except for the uphill bits.
