Happy Thursday, campers. Sorry for being out of commission for the last week, but it was for very good reasons--I went to visit the grandkids (and their parents, too, if I must be honest). I almost waved in JCM's direction, but I literally had no free time to play. Grandchildren can be demanding in a very lovely way!

I thought I felt a disturbance in the force.

Remember you must tell everyone it rained the whole time you visited.

The sound you are hearing is is me pounding my head against the desk.

I'm using a software tool to design circuit boards. I'm trying to edit the size of the text on an information page to send to the company that will fabricate the board. I'm having trouble doing it. I can change other text, just not this particular text on this page.

So I go to the support pages. The response is "We don't have information on changing that text size."

This software costs $22,000 per year per seat!

ARRRGGGHHHHHHH!
