Double Trouble To those passionate friends who aren't aware There's double trouble in the air Computer virus in a deadly way To hit computers on Christmas Day An e-mail marked "Lump of Coal" is just a lie Don't open it or all your files will die And then there is that Y2K That promises doom on New Years Day Just follow close the steps I say And everything will be A-OK Double click on "My Computer" Double click on "Control Panel" Double click on "Regional Settings" icon Click the "Date " tab at the top of the page Where it says "Short Date Sample", look and see if it shows a "two digit" year. Of course it does. That's the default setting for Windows 95, Windows and Windows 98 Click on the button across from "Short Date Style" And select the option that shows: mm/dd/yyyy or m/d/yyyy Be sure your selection has four Y's showing Then click "Apply". Then click "OK" at the bottom. Thank you Liz [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 12-20-1999).] |

Only you would write this into a poem! Why don't you e-mail it to people too? You're a wonder.  K |

Yes, this has been e-mailed to many, I just didn't want any of the poets to overlook this. I hope everyone reads this. Liz [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 12-20-1999).] |

Well, then, let's keep it up at the top! Thanks, Elizabeth. Elizabeth Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail- And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale! -Oliver Wendell Holmes |
