Shaggy,
Are you using the "new" Outlook? If so, try switching to the "Classic" Outlook. Some searching seems to indicate that you can import .pst files using the Classic Outlook.

Only one side of his head. The other side doesn't look so good.Quote:

When I followed the steps for switching to Classic, it asked for admin permission and then started downloading something MASSIVE, which it claimed was Office 365. I found a mention that this might have changed in October, and that the only way to get to classic Outlook if you don't already have it from earlier, is with a home or business subscription.Quote:

Maybe it's time to switch to something like Thunderbird.
I also have a slight suspicion that my email may cease to work entirely next week. Despite having a personal account, I see some evidence that MS decided that it was a subsidiary to my work email. Once I sever ties to that, MS might just end my personal account, as well. That seems unlikely, but they certainly do seem to have an agenda, so we'll see.

Yeah, that was a dark joke. Still, the only piece of currency that I can think of with JFK is the half dollar. Is he on any of the bills? I don't THINK he is, but I just don't use enough to be certain....and despite writing this on the internet, I don't feel like looking it up.
I've always been struck by JFK's voice. While I know he SHOULD have that Boston accent, it still doesn't seem right coming from him. I feel the same way about Churchill.
In the case of Churchill, even though he looks like a bulldog, I never expect him to sound like one.
It always surprises me when people who weren't even born when JFK was alive have so much reverence for him. He has become like some kind of mythical being.Quote:

Outlook works OK, until Microsoft completely removes the Classic option, provided you are using a Microsoft email account. I have the stand-alone version of Office. I would never use the subscription version. I set it up to access one of my non-Microsoft email accounts last month, and that was a complete nightmare. If you do not have a Microsoft email account, it wants you to set one up before you can even start Outlook. There is a way around that, which does work, but it is a lot more trouble than it should be. For a non-Microsoft email address, there are better email client programs available.Quote:

Blast from the past! Glad to see you!Quote:

I could figure out up and down, though.
Fog is one of the results of a bad inversion. It's basically chunky style air. If the inversion gets bad enough, the fog starts getting thicker and thicker...and when there are lights on at night, the fog droplets seem to get bigger. Kind of a soup, eventually.
Looks like the inversion is forecast to remain right through the weekend, so air quality will continue to deteriorate. If I can find my way out of the valley, I'll go somewhere else.
The one nice thing with the inversion like this, is that I can drive up to the ski hill. The skiing is lousy, as it is warm and sunny up there, which turns the snow to mush, which then freezes. However, driving up the hill, one drives out of the clouds and the valley is filled with what looks like a sea of white waves. I've seen people lined up on the road taking pictures of the clouds in the valley.
Here we have what we call Tule Fog. It can be really bad. Have no idea if it has anything to do with an inversion. It seems to settle in after we have rain. But yeah, you can drive up to the hills and the sun will be shining.
Thick fog this morning. It may break up later on today, or it may not. As the inversion persists, if fog develops, it lingers longer and longer until it is just foggy.
The temperatures tend to drop under the fog, as well. Makes for interesting growing areas. Without inversions, we'd rarely get a frost, which would allow a wider variety of plants to make it through the winter. With inversions, we can get temps down in the single digits (F) for weeks on end, thereby wiping out all plants that would have survived a bit of frost, but not a prolonged hard freeze.
