MESSAGE POSTED COMPLIMENTS OF LOWDON HELLER
Lowdon,
The Sandhills cranes are flying north today. Some were very low over the house. I ran in to get the digital camera.
Stuck in a brand new diskette. Ran outside. Turned on camera and pointed it at cranes right overhead. Almost the
closest I had ever seen them.

Hmmm.. nothing in viewfinder except message......"Diskette Error". Would not wok....and diskette would not eject.
What was wrong? Ran back into house and pulled diskette out with a tweezer...but not just the diskette, along with
the diskette was the full sheet of diskette stick on labels folded neatly so they were the same size as the diskette.

No damage done to camera, diskette or diskette labels, but where were the CRANES? Far enough north already
that I could not even see them but could still hear them squaking and honking. -------- Doug Wiken
