Hi Dave,

As for Arisia pages, I can look at them fine on Safari.  Last year I did
minor edits to the org chart just fine (I know a trivial amount of html) on
Safari.  This year I'm just asking Ben and/or Jasra to do all the editing I
might have done.  And, since I'm not in charge of a specific department, I
should not have any need to do major editing on my own.

Yes, google sucks rocks and the only way I can access docs and spreadsheets
is with Firefox.  That's one of the reasons I won't go to gmail!  Plus, I
don't trust google to keep my information totally private.  That's why we
have our own domain, although it is on a coho now as well and out of our
basement.

Anyway, with Jasra and Ben doing the heavy lifting, there's not much more
that can be done without changing the whole damned environment and it's not
necessarily worth the effort.

I'm sad to see that Sharon is about to do the same things at work.  There
must be a good set of available features that I don't want to become
involved with on drupal, or it wouldn't be used.

Sigh.

Jill
