She plugs a USB > mouse into a USB port. Thanks. I'm going to order one. I have a win 10 computer that goes nuts if it boots without the mouse and keyboard. (Sometime I forget to check the KVM switch). Then it will ignore the keyboard even after everything is corrected and rebooted. I does recognize a usb mouse though. I think it may be that nutty fast startup, so I disabled that, but these converters would be nice to have around. |

It's not a problem for me because Google Groups does. Google Groups also replaces previous lines of quotes with a place marker. This really makes it easy to read. All newsgroup readers should have this feature - but they don't. Why is that? |

The why is I follow the usenet standard which dejanews used to follow before the goggle monster swallowed it. usenet news readers are supposed to set carriage returns when posting, which would be platform independent, which I suppose these days is an old fashioned idea. -- "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." - Andrew S.

Tanenbaum The protocols, rules, and etiquette, of Usenet were set in a world that was vastly different than today. Platform independence is not an old fashioned idea, it is very much alive. I can access this newsgroup on most any computer in the world using most any OS. I can work on my documents in a similar manner on any computer that has a standard browser. Platform Independence is pretty much a reality. I suspect that you might have been in the IT field because those people seem to be stuck in the past. Does that seem right to you? In the end, we'll all be using Google Groups to access this newsgroup. Yoose guys just don't know it yet. Yoose can take that to the bank. |

That was the most awful experience ever. I'd have to hang around the campus until early morning. Some guys would bring in a box of cards and I'd have a program with just a tiny stack - and it still wouldn't run! > I learned more on a Commodore 64 in a few days than I ever did in that college class. You could write and run a program directly on the opening screen in a few minutes using an instruction set that was pretty much the same as FORTRAN IV. That was simply brilliant! You can't blame Fortran for the interface you had to use. Fortran is still in use in the aviation industry. I recently wrote a small program in Fortran, typing it in just like C or any other language. Cindy Hamilton |

Hitting that enter key at the end of lines was a tough habit to break for a lot of people. That no longer seems to be a problem - all it took was a decade or so for people to understand the concept of word wrapping. :) Depends on what you're doing and what the editor is. I still prefer an 80-column line for Usenet posts because not everybody's newsreader wraps long lines. It's common courtesy. Cindy Hamilton |

Google Groups assumes you're using Google Groups to read Usenet. His posts look fine when I read them on GG, although I can tell from the quoting carets that his lines are extremely long. He's repeatedly been asked to use the Enter key, but he feels he's too forward-thinking to do so. Cindy Hamilton |

I remember watching an episode of Jacques Pepin and he said never to soak black beans overnight because they will start to ferment. He uses the quick soak method. |

One hour but with that method, bring to a boil and boil one minute for black beans. Then turn off the heat. Kidney beans require 2 minutes of boiling. |

However, if you're making a dish where you don't want the beans to burst open (like a salad), adding acid at the beginning will help prevent it. Cindy Hamilton |

The paste was left on for four hours prior to grilling, then it was roughly blotted off and the steak was sprayed with oil right before I put it on the grill. Canned corn for the starch Salad. I ate my steak on the salad, which was dressed with 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon soy sauce (Kikkoman), 1 tablespoon extra- virgin olive oil. Cindy Hamilton |
