David,
You just wait until the end of January or the middle of February when I post links to red-ripe tomatoes, beautiful heads of lettuce and ripe, juicy cucumbers that I pluck from my spare bedroom!
BTW, all the grow lights combined will draw less current than one 1500 watt space heater. Plus, when I wired them, I used 12/2 Romex (I had spare wire laying around). Plus, they are on a 15 amp breaker.
But the space blankets are suppose to be the cat's meow. Get caught on an open sea or lake in the middle of summer - they keep you cool. If you are stuck on a glacier in sub-zero temps with winds blowing 35 MPH, it keeps you warm.
They give these things away to like the top 100 finishers in the local marathon, though one would think if you are in shape to run 26 miles, you should be safe in heat or cold!

Good idea. Now when you blow the circuits and heat from too many grow lights, you can bundle up in the space blankets <g>..

Yeah, I've had to be good - don't have enough time to get into trouble! Just knocked almost $40 off my costs. I was going to order a roll of Mylar (a very reflective material that makes the light intensity much higher) which was the biggest ticket. I had tried to find some in Cincinnati but no one carries it. Then someone suggested Grainger. They don't sell the rolls of it but they use to carry those emergency blankets that are 56" x 7' pieces. They have been discontinued but they are bringing in some from other stores. I ordered five of them, at a cost of less than $16 total!

I think you deserve the new hydroponics...you have been a good boy this year, I here.

SeaMonkey is the suite of applications while FF is only the browser, AFAIK.
I'm trying to resist the impulse to buy about $80 worth of hydroponics supplies. Made a deal with myself (talk about dealing with the devil) that I will wait until tomorrow to order it. I'll be able to grow four more tomato and cucumber plants (ya need cukes for a salad) as well as six heads of lettuce and four basil plants.
There's no doubt if the law looks at my on-line orders they will be knocking at my door - at the best! I don't mind if they knock, as with their hands or fist. I'll be more than happy to give them a tour. I worry they will bust the door down and destroy my seedlings looking for something illegal. Although, I must say, when I few some web pages and people show the plants they have growing, I have to wonder if the law really cares.
Sent my last pages of the year to the printer, now all I have to do is deliver them tomorrow and Thursday.

Not a lot of people using IE8 beta around here either, but a few have and have reported problems with Publisher webs. Compatibility view...IE8 renders the page in IE7 mode.

I guess the hydro-growing is stretching out your gardening season. The tomatoes I can see, but cucumbers...yuck. I am not a fan.

I haven't seen any reports with the Beta but I don't know if many people are using it. After I got a new computer and had to reinstall almost every program, I could not find a current version of Mozilla (wonder why!) so switched to SeaMonkey. Wish I had saved the folder with all my cookies in it!
But what is the Compatibility view?
There have been a lot of requests for WP to get away from the fixed positioning style which I think would not be hard to do. Instead of converting code to <div> tags, it would be <table> ones. The problem might be in legacy documents where one has used some tricks to get items to display the way the designer wants.
I checked my cucumbers this morning and sure enough, one bloom has developed into a fruit. The hope is to have it mature in 13 days. My niece and her kids love, I mean really love, fresh cucumbers and we are getting together December 28. If I can take them a nice 8-10" long cuke they will be on Cloud Cuckoo!

Yeah...at least I remembered your suggestion this time...
Wow...you really do have a green thumb.
By the way, how is WebPlus getting along with IE8 beta? Any noise in your forum? It sounds like there are a lot of sites that are going to require compatibility view, including Publisher webs.
Merry Christmas to you too...

Saw my name and wanted to say hello and Merry Christmas. One more paper to go then I'm off for a couple of weeks.
Check this out:

Here's another plant:

I can remember this topic coming up before, but I can't remember what was recommended.
Here is a link to a number of search engines that you might try:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=GFr&q=website+search+engine&btnG=Search
I am not sure that the google search engine is free or not.
Sorry I can't be more specific...just back up your Pub file and test some of them. Post back if you find one you like and works well with Publisher.
