My mistake. Getting up to speed on how to post. I apologize
How do you get to be a silver member and still be figuring out how to post? (Don't you have to have made over 2500 posts to get to that level?)

If your upload speed is lagging it sometimes causes an upload lag, then it looks like it didn't work. So a person hits post again then it all goes through.
Has happened many times when the connection speed sucked.
Nice early 4 holed button Merf.
Not of these types are dug it seems.

No, listen Merf, NO reason to apologize for anything there, if anything it's me for even bringing it up, not important. Keep posting. Besides, I think you've been finding more then I have been recently. Sometimes we talk (or type) before thinking it through. That was me...

No worries -- I can relate. Actually I just wanted to make sure it was really you and not some newbie hacking your account. It happens.
