I have a motorcycle accident story that I can even make this Linux related. I was hit on the 101 by a Ram Charger back in Oct 1996 right after the 101 -> 202 ramp opened up. I broke two vertebrate L2 and L3 in my lower back. I was laid up for 6 months. How is this Linux related? I spent those 6 months barley able to walk, but learned Linux inside out upside down and backwards. I didn't have much else to do. I wouldn't suggest this as the preferred method to learn Linux, but I think I am better off in the long run. -Bill On Mon, 2005-02-07 at 11:35 -0700, Alex Dean wrote: > roger wrote: > > >I sure don't know how to solve this one - drive alert and scared, I suppose. > > > That's good advice.
