Remote viewers can't stay there too long
because we see too much. Especially at
such a horrific crime scene.

So, I'm gone from there. Gotta run.

Enjoy your day!


I'm not trained in remote viewing so actually all I see is just the physical presence while your focusing on the metaphysical. I'll have to defer to you and your second sight on this one cherry...

It seems that FF accepts a certain range of photo formats. Some pics I save from online are not jpegs or gifs. They may be bmp, raw, tiff etc. Just change the format with Irfan or your Photoshop you what ever photo manipulation program you have.

Sometimes it is not the pic itself but the "save as" settings on your PC. Just change them when you save. If you are using Internet Explorer, I have learned you must empty my cookies and cache or all you get for a "save as" choice is png. I had to ask a FF geek to figure this out. (smart bunch! - I now use Mozilla as my browser)

Occasionally with news photos there is a little code that prevents another PC from uploading the pic. I have found that if I rename the file I am good to go.

This may do the trick. It works for me. I use Irfan for simple or batch format changes.

Hope this helps :D

You're prolly right Burt. That or Art's been watching too much Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on Kung Fu Theater. He might be practicing his Crooked Fist for us. :D

Yeah if he wasn't smiling I'd say he's taking himself way too seriously.

Looks like he's stretching.

Well as Art stated on last nights show it was a new clock he bought from France I think. He was so proud of it. That's all it was just the new clock no other mystery to it.

You know what, I can see it also now that you've mentioned it. It's right next to the rainbow. Very strange.

I used to work in a photo lab. It could be just a speck of dirt picked up during processing.

Well actually cherry the outer ring of LED's
can be set up as a countdown timer.

For example...when Art's in a spot break it gives him
a quick easy visual cue on how may seconds
he has left until he's back on the air. The center is
nothing more than a large digital clock.

This can be a big help to a broadcaster that's constantly
timing in and out of hard network breaks.

Thanks, Burt. What types of clocks do ham operators prefer?
Is their equipment similar to that of air controllers?

Be safe!
