[lace-chat] Computer help. please
Please can one of you wizards with computers offer me some advice - Over the last 2 days, I keep getting a message from windows asking me if I want it to "compact my messages" to save memory. I just keep clicking it off, as I don't know what will happen to the compacted messages - will I be able to open and read them as normal? Will I be able to save the special ones in the designated folders as normal? etc Where would I go to reverse the command if I change my mind? Has anyone compacted their messages, and if so can you adives me please. It is all to do with Outlook Express, I think. from Liz in Melbourne, Oz, [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, you're right, it IS a phone, but it sure was a neat thing at IOLI Convention. More than once, someone in a class whipped out their phone, something they were carrying anyway, to take a picture that could be proofed immediately (and retaken, if necessary). I seldom carry a camera, but often carry my phone. We use our phones often, as we work lots of overtime, and take road trips, and are seldom home. Indeed, we would dump our landline if we didn't have this computer. I think it all depends on your lifestyle. And our young adult son, who can't afford cable, has a cell phone (no house phone) that he actually reads the news on. Before you pooh-pooh that, I just have to say, at least he is getting news. I don't agree with much that he does, either!

It's quite odd but very amusing. Are these the same film? The one with the cyclist and granny in is titled "Belleville Rendezvous" when shown in UK; I suspect that is the original French title. The triplets are in it, but they play a minor role only in the later part of the film. I wasn't sure if this was the film that Tamara described, or if there was possibly a second Belleville film.

[lace-chat] New IOLI Bulletin
As those of us outside the US haven't the faintest idea what Devon is talking about because the bulletin won't arrive for a while, I'll just delete her email, look it up in the archive when my copy arrives, and maybe make comment on what she's said and on the content then, when US members will have forgotten all about it. Then those who've already got it can enjoy discussing the publication and expressing gratitude twice.

This gag order on discussion of the IOLI Bulletin has certainly spoiled my pleasure. I used to get the occasional day-brightening pat on the back when it came out. Yesterday, a friend called me to discuss an article appearing in the newspaper. Far from finding that it spoiled my pleasure in reading the newspaper, I found the article twice as enjoyable for being able to discuss it with a friend. Perhaps those people who find a publication ruined by discussion of it could refrain from reading e-mails titled New IOLI Bulletin and those of us who enjoy discussing publications and expressing gratitude to those who put them out could discuss it with wild abandon. Good Work, Debra! Lovely issue. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into it. I think the additional eight pages is a positive development. I am sorry I sent you the background of the cover in bit-map format. I see you surmounted that obstacle heroically. Tamara, nice Windrose 2. The color reproduction of it on the inside back cover is breathtaking, and how do you think of these intricate thread paths? What a nice Goldfinch/Distlefink on the cover. The design process of the Little Point de Gaze fan described by Paula Harten is very informative. There is a photograph of Arachne member Alice Howell at the exhibit she put on in Oregon. Good work, Alice. Oregon is the richer for your efforts and now I know what you look like. Good heavens, Christine and David Springett's antique bobbin collection is going to be sold at auction. l better book my ticket to London...
