Welcome to my monthly newsletters.
Spring is arriving very nicely in this (Raleigh NC USA) area. It will be interesting to see how next year's "El Nino" Spring will come about -- but, we need not worry about that now!
I will be "on the road" quite a bit in April, so the April newsletter will not be available until mid-May. I realize this (late newsletters) is getting to be a habit -- but, someday I hope to get back on a more-prompt schedule.
I encourage you to browse earlier SCScompA newsletters if you have not already done so, and to send me any comments/questions/concerns that you may have regarding material presented in these newsletters.
I hope you all are having a good start to 2002.
Let's begin, as usual, the newsletter with a couple of scanned (I use a Microtek ScanMaker V6upl) comics.
I guess that we should always say exactly what we mean!
I am not sure we want to know the answer to each question.
I wish you success with your use of home computing systems.
Contact me regarding any matter in this newsletter that causes you concern or you want to otherwise discuss.
Regards,
Dave Shogren

Example of a Cooking Recipe in HMT (Web Displayable) Format |
Recently I had a reason to see about a recipe for Cornish Hen. We wanted to give a try at cooking Cornish Hen and took the following approach at doing so.

FreeCell Game/Deal of the Month
|
We continue, in our household, doing FreeCell deals from 1-to-32000! We will NOT accomplish this task. We know that. However, as we go along in our for-fun-effort, yet frustration... I will mention once in awhile specific FreeCell deals we find challenging.
Note: If you are running your PC on Windows 98, it is possible you have to specifically install FreeCell. Just install Accessories/Games. Let me know if these FreeCell games and the number of times we had to restart to solve the deal is about what you find. If you are going to attack deals 1-to-32000 and want to interact with us in that regard, let me know what thousand-or-so you are going to start with. We have completed deals through 2000. Now, we are attacking 2001-to-3000 and I would recommend you start with 3001! At the rate we are going (a little more than 100 deals a month) it will only take us 22 more years to complete the 32000 deals without your help. If you let us know what you have completed, it will take us less time! I am adding to this column in the newsletter a few "special" games that we found during the month.
Let me know how YOU do! If you want to see our list of FreeCell Deals 1-thru-what we are working on now and our comments on how many times we had to restart the deal to find a solution, let me know -- or click on: SCScompA FreeCell Table of Completed Deals
