Potioncat:
Do you get the paper, paste and scissors at Staples or will K-Mart 
do? But seriously, where do you find them to add to the tool bar. Or, 
does it depend on the browser? Why would you have two browers open at 
the same time?

My own computer question, sort of.

I just went into internet options and made a change that sped up the 
computer. (Oh, the wonder of me!) But my options aren't the same as 
they are at work. At work I can delete cookies and temporary files. 
That doesn't seem to be case here. Does anyone know what I'm talking 
about?


BTW Carol, being a copyeditor sounds a lot like being a matchmaker

Potioncat: which reminded me of a line from the Matchmaker song 
from "Fiddler on the Roof":

"With no dowery, no money no family background, be glad you've got a 
man!"
