I don't, either. I watch on a 39" HDTV and I can't see a difference in
quality between a BluRay and a MKV from a DVD. (I know there must be a
difference, but these old eyes don't see enough of a difference to
equal the expense
>Yes, and thanks again for your patience.
The pleasure was mine. Ever meet anonagenarian who didn't appreciate a
listening ear?
>Another area in which I am clueless. You video connoisseurs. ;o)
Well, some movies have a lot of white, and white subtitles can be next
door to impossible to read - the process is time-consuming but it's
simple to change their colour (and possibly their position, but don't
hold me to that).

I would dearly love to forget that, myself :P
>Yes, me too. No torrents for me, thanks.
My grandson got me set up, and now I can use them, not bad after a
lifetime success rate of zero percent. One of the places I go is a
private tracker called Cinemageddon, and admittedly most of what's
their is of no interest to anyone here, but I have a weakness for a
lot of "so bad it's good" stuff - and there's the occasional diamond
there hidden among the lumps of coal.
Sometimes torrents have what I'm looking for, sometimes they don't.

Give Sum a gold star! The last school I taught in put on a different
G&S production (staff and students) every other year for all the time
I was teaching there.

I have a suspicion any further such surprise might well be my last :P
>Not much fun if you are forced to do them, are they?
I haven't felt forced by anything I've done to share here :) I can't
say the same for twb, but really was I forced? I don't think anyone
there really has that much power
Now I've cleared off the hard drive for another few days, but you
never know what might find its way here there or somewhere :)

Wolf! Right here and now!
