I do tend to put a lot on paper Jimmy but I still have some old stuff on floppies and not many computers take them now. Still one can buy a usb., one quite cheaply.

That's something I need to do desperately! We refer to it as 'backing up;' putting things on discs so you won't lose them if the system on your computer crashes! I had gone through it before on my old computer, and had lost a lot of valuable stuff! Never again . . .

Yes, we just don't realize how much we rely on the little rats.

We have a terrific guard system for our e-mails and online but I also have backups on 5 discs when I want to clean up a lot. Good luck Bro and enjoyed the poem as well.

Re: FS
Good thinking FS. You were brought up in the age. We older guys have still to learn.

I have a system disk as well for my desk top and lap top. The computers have theirs on their USB...A great job conveying emotion.

I never thought of that V. Actually it goes into Paypal to save up for the next sub. Yes I am afraid I lower the standard on some poems, but life's like that.

Re: Naut
Yes it is easy to forget. I was amazed that it was two years since I last made the disks.

I feel for you! It's happened to me in the past - now I simply back up everything pretty regularly! In fact, you reminded me that I'll need to do it again...

A picture your poem paints indeed! Awesome! Having to fix you computer, or the letter from tax revenue, or the constant rain? One of, or maybe all three, sure have your creative juices running!

Ahh, CCT, so happy you found your way back through your
computer to that poem. What a picture you paint of that place in the meadow, the way of a man and a maid... You've got a gift with the intense abstract.
