llizard >> I can remember that there's six hours between you and me,
and that Sweden is one hour after Finland and one hour ahead of England...

VK; I just found a "Holidays in Hell" forum.  :^D

VK >> I only remember the Sweden > England time difference because I
     can see Swedish time on your chat, and GMT on my system tray clock.

llizard [home] 1 Aug. 23:58, from: 216.154.2.34, green
VK; Do you think I should contribute to the "Holidays from Hell" with
my tale of woe about not being able to leave Calcutta for 5 days
because my name was taken off the passenger list (after we had
confirmed it being there twice!!! once three weeks prior to the flight
and once the day before)?

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:00, from: 216.154.2.34, green
Martin; Ooooh!! You have colours. (I could have colours too, but I
am too lazy)

VK [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:00, from: 130.240.2.113, red
llizard >> Do that!  :-)

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:01, from: 216.154.2.34, green
Martin; In fact, you have a FAR more sophisticated setup than I do.
I am merely in frames.

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:02, from: 216.154.2.34, green
VK: I'll have to fire up Opera in order to do that. I can see what colour
everyone is because you have the handy words to tell me.  :^D

VK [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:02, from: 130.240.2.113, red
llizard >> Are you calling frames "sophisticated"?!?!?  :D:D:D:D:D:D:D::D:D:D::D:D:DD::DD:DD:D:D:D:D:D

VK [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:03, from: 130.240.2.113, red
llizard >> I meant about the holiday from hell thing...

Martin Atkins [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:03, from: 195.188.90.135, orange
llizard >> Yes. I use Internet Exploiter 4, which supports
          Stylesheets. Netscape 4 isn't all that bad at colours,
          either.

VK, llizard >> The fact that you got that pic indicates that I've
              finally convinced my server that it doesn't need to
              get a username and password. That's good! :o)

Martin Atkins [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:05, from: 195.188.90.135, orange
VK >> Internet Explorer does a weird thing. The stylesheet hides the
     ,orange from the end of the infoline, but if I copy my IP address
     from there to the clipboard, I get 195.188.90.135,orange.
       I think that's quite odd... :o)

 "   \ ha   No, of COURSE, I wasn't implying that the frames is sophisticated.
            quite the contrary.

I was commenting on the personalized version that Martin has. I was
trying to convey that ALL I had was frames in Netscape3.

I will probably send my Calcutta woes at some point. I'll have to add
thrilling account of our taxi journey from downtown Calcutta to Calcutta
airport at 5:00 am and then the return taxi journey after screaming 
ineffectually at the ground staff in Calcutta and then the really pathetic
part about me staggering up the stairs of our Bflat hotel
in Calcutta, weeping uncontrollably. The fellow who was taking us
up to our room was quite concerned. T was just mad because I couldn't
get control of myself.

llizard >> Sounds interesting...

Martin >> :-)

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:12, from: 216.154.2.34, green
Martin; Cool. I have to click on EditPad on the task bar to pull up

then copy and paste it in here.

(Unless of course, I haven't copied anything else.)

Then I can just control"v" to my heart's content

Martin Atkins [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:13, from: 195.188.90.135, orange
VK >> vkchatsettings.gif in the same directory as the last screengrab.

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:15, from: 216.154.2.34, green
VK; It wasn't very interesting at the time. :^D I was really in despair.
I had to get back to Toronto because I was working for a ballet company
at the time and was due to go on tour 10 days from the time that I
was SUPPOSED to fly out of Calcutta. When we got home, it turned out
that I had to leave for the tour _two_ days after getting home and I
hadn't played my viola for 4 weeks. (Playing Beethoven 6th Symphony
when in shape isn't easy. When jet lagged and horribly out of shape, well...
best to say no more.)

Martin Atkins [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:16, from: 195.188.90.135, orange
llizard >> That's how I used to do it, albeit with NotePad rather than
          EditPad.

llizard [home] 2 Aug. 00:17, from: 216.154.2.34, green
VK; That last screen shot of Martin's looks almost exactly the same
as it does in Opera

Martin Atkins [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:18, from: 195.188.90.135, orange
Actually, I've just got a decent screengrabbing program which is why
I've suddenly gone screengrab mad! :o)

VK [email] [home] 2 Aug. 00:18, from: 130.240.2.113, red
llizard >> Of course it was "interesting"! It wasn't "fun" or "pleasant",
but I'm quite convinced it was "interesting".   :-)

Martin; as you can see, my file is nice and unwieldy.

VK; Yes, I suppose it was interesting.  The most interesting thing for
me that day was to go back to exactly the same hotel room we had already
been in and find the little bouquet of flowers upside down in the waste
basket. I picked it up and put it in a jar of water (weeping uncontrollably
the while)

VK; Some friends of ours had given me a little bouquet of flowers as we
got on the train to go from Varanasi to Calcutta. I had put it in a jar
of water when we were in the hotel room in Calcutta. I'd left it there
when we left to go to the airport. The room had been tidied and cleaned
when we were screaming that we HAD to fly out of Calcutta that day. But
whoever had cleaned had just dumped the bouquet of flowers into the waste
basket so it was still there on our tragic return.
