 Response 1 of 54: Dani in Alaska  (DaniK) * Thu, Dec  5, 1996 (02:08) * 4 lines 
 
Well, as you can see from my pseudonym I'm from Alaska and my name is Dani.
I'm a Human Services student (attending college fulltime), a mother of two teenagers (now THAT is an experience!), an avid MUD player, voracious
(I think) reader, and a very extroverted, friendly human being. I found this
place when Terry emailed me the address...thanks, Terry! :)

Hi Terry & Dani! Didn't I just see y'all over on E-Minds?
Yea, Terry e-mailed me too, this looks like a cool place so far, will have to check out some of the other conferences.

I'm down here in Houston, sitting in front of the computer with the cat on my lap, waiting for traffic to die down so I can go in to work.

See ya!

Hi, folks:
I'm an undergraduate student majoring in psychology. Someone mentioned this place over at Electric Minds. This is only my second visit to this neck of the wood. I'm pretty new to Internet and its way of life. So far, I think I'm getting the hang of things.

Hi Terry,
Like many people I'm interested in things like why my computer does things
like it has a mind of its own, rather than what I want it to do. When I first got into this thing, I was led to believe that the computer only does what you tell it to do, but it seems like the reverse is true at times, anyway its alot
of fun and I'm addicted. I enjoy your site and look foreward to asking you alot of questions.
One major question I have is, what should a person expect to see happen when
he downloads either Navigator 3.0 or MS Explorer? I downloaded NAV 3.0 and it just sits in cache doing nothing. Heeeelp!

Can you explain it a little more detail. Does it come up and run? What do you
mean about the cache? More details!

Since this seems to be a place to ask some questions I have one. When I am on the chat lines using mIRC there are alot of pictures that come up. What do I do so that I can see them. I am using mIRC 4.6. Do I need something else to see the pictures? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You want to ask this in the mIRC topic in the 'apps' conference.
A lot of the folks who develope these kinds of programs frequent
that conference.

Ok, more of the same. I found the spring through eMinds/terry's e-mail invitation. I live in rural New Hampshire and have also been phone-free for many years until now, so new to net, but forever on computers. I am a musician. My wife works the day job and I stay home - fix up the house/homeschool the kids/care for the baby/etc. I play in a couple of (rock) bands weekends to pay my ISP. I guess I will be looking around here for music/comedy/homeschool talk. Just started a homeschool topic at eMinds (commo
s) in fact, anyone interested in that here? It is about my only serious topic. Other than that, I can be a bit sarcastic at times, so if you are wondering whether I am joking, I most always am, so try not and get mad - just slam me right back.

Hi Terry, I am from Western Australia. I live in Perth - the most isolated city in the world, the nearest capital city to us is Djkarta, and Singapore. Canberra our Capital is further away. We have surf, clean beaches, but lonliness sometimes. I have come to enjoy Spring and have made friends, ie. in particular Marcia, who is very special. Anne H
