         Next, on the reply you are concocting press/mash 'Central' + V (for 
velcro).....and *Wallah*, the quotable snip magically appears on your reply.

Chris, it took me a couple of seconds to work out what Central was:  it's 
Control/C to copy and then Control/V to paste.  Yeah, I just learned this a 
couple of months ago.  Great.

In AOL I can just highlight the desired portion and then click "Reply" and it 
automatically pastes it into the reply.   

The Control/C etc is great for pasting things into other documents or even 
for copying those long Internet addresses people are always referring us to.  
I use it to paste the address to the top line that says "Type Keyword or Web 
Address here and click Go."  And yes, "voila" it appears in the right spot.

My life will be a real hardship for the next week or so (and that's apart 
from this 60-70 degree daytime weather - I actually had to wear a blazer to 
work yesterday!) they've disconnected our Internet access, presumably as a 
security measure.
