I just had the best call!!!!! A gentleman just called in and in a frenzied and harried voice asked me, "How do I install the Question Mark on my keyboard?" I almost chocked myself not laughing and told him where the key is on his keyboard.

Thanks Guys. I've updeated the page with some of the stories. Will probably stick a link through to mouse's page, since after reading the tech support page one might feel the need to vent one's spleen at the evil Gates.

Will keep an eye out! (And urban myths aren't just spam!! It's a very important area of anthropology, one which I know very little about )
However, I do receive a very large number of those kind of things and so will put together the best 200 or so for you! Maybe we can get the powers that be to give us a joint page / book!!

I've been really RL busy of late (as you can tell by how far behind I'm getting in all these threads!) but I'll get back on keel sometime (I hope) and go through some more of my mail archives (dating back to 96 and beyond ) sometime and post up some more.
Neat idea on the collaboration, but I'm not sure it's something the PTWVH would enjoy seeing --- again.
