Thanks for the idea but as I told Dave in today's packet, I have enough
cook books, print outs, clippings, etc that I'm not interested any more
in the vast majority of the contents of the floppies. I think he does
have a C-64 emulator but it's just not worth the time/effort unless I
know I want a specific recipe posted by a specific person on a specific
date. We do have a good sized MM file of recipies saved from the echo
once we got a PC, plus the internet has a gajillion more so I don't lack
for ideas. (G)
