Hi  Steve,      Was very interested in your  comments  about the 
fire storms..  We  are lucky in the sense that we get a lot of rain
rather than drying winds.  However we are sorry to hear about people 
loosing their homes particularly  at Christmas time.  A time when we 
lookforward to relaxing a bit  and  taking it easy..  And useually  one 
looses a lot of items that are irreplaceable  and  mean a lot to one
in the way of particularly special to ones own existence.
        You may  or may not know  that Kevin,   ZL4MD,   was fire chief at 
Cromwell  for quite  afew  years.  Is retired  from there now.  Nearly lost
his eye
sight some years ago when a big circuit breaker  blew uo\p.

       Wish you all the best for  2002  and hopefully  we may hear you on the
Thursday night net.  But then you may have  a similar problem to myself. 
a 50  x  200  foot  section and surrounded  at close range by other  houses.

 Would also appreciate advice of your Virus checker.    Am tied up with the
Dunedin
SeniorNer, a group  of world wide affiliations helping those over  55  who
want to learn
about computers. We are preparing a list of  Anti virus progs for putting
into the club
newletter. You seem to be very happy with your choice and does not seem to
be excessively expensive.
