unicorn,
I don't know how to solve that technical question but perhaps I could go ahead and post the question in Community for her.

"I am" means "I exist"; it's definitional. You can count on this one. If
certain knowledge is possible, this is it. You know because you have to exist in order to ponder the question; thinking requires existing; i.e. cogito ergo sum. Des Cartes was right. This does not prove all our perceptions accurate, only that our perceptions exist. I agree with Aardvark; nihilism is most undesirable because it is a way to make the least of life when life when can be more than that, but it may be that you have to create as well as perceive meaning. Perceiving your environment, your body, and mind, is one thing -- but what significance do you attach to it?

Quirky or Rocky
if you or someone else could help Justsouno, I know she'd greatly appreciate it--I would but I am far from computer literate--as long as I can turn the thing on I'm happy.

Justsouno,
we need to figure out what is up with that huge space after your comments. i remember another blogger had that same problem but not who it was. Why don't you ask Blogit staff by posting the question in the community area?

Don't fall into a nihilistic funk! There are answers. Something is better than nothing.
