[QUOTE="LucyN, post: 210597, member: 23797"] Hello Everyone Thanks for the Google translation. I took Russian in college (many years ago), but I was still able to understand it and your translation confirmed it. Sometimes I turn on Google translation to Russian to see if I can still understand it. Computers have been part of my life since my baby days. My dad worked for IBM in the early days. He helped set up NORAD. He had some fun stories, like the time they made an image of Santa and the reindeer go across the screens. It did not go over well with the top brass. Thomas J. Watson (IBM founder) gave me my first Christmas present as a baby. My mother says he had to have picked it out himself, as it was the ugliest stuffed dog you could never imagine.
