Why gosh Doug, I don't know what to say! I can only say thank-you, and that 
I'm humbled by your offer. But let me be clear, I'm not fishing for any 
hand-outs, I never have. I've always done this because it's been my small 
way of trying to pay back this wonderful list for everything that I have 
gained from all of you, it's given me a great deal of satisfaction being 
able to help my fellow technetter's in my own small way. I was upset with 
Homestead for the increasing fee's that they were charging for the small 
bandwidth that my page consumes, and the fact that I was having real trouble 
backing-up everything from my page onto my own computer. The phone call with 
them this morning resolved those issues.

My address is changing once again. You might remember when I first started 
out on TechNet many years ago I was out in "silly-con valley" California, 
then I moved to Tulsa, OK, then again to Allentown, PA, then once again to 
Tallahassee, FL, and now I'm about to relocate one more time to Boise, ID 
towards the end of this month. I will be the first to admit that I'm 
absolutely sick of moving. I will also admit that this move now really has 
my attention and I hope that things go well for me. It's going to be over 
2,400-miles in a Uhaul towing my car, and probably at least a week of 
driving. What I'm really worried about is going across the rockies through 
Wyoming on I-80. I hope I get a lucky break with the weather. Although at 
this time of year it's a roll of the dice. I could sail through the 
400-miles without too much effort, or I may get stuck in a hotel room for a 
few days when it's nuts to be out on the road because of the snow or wind. 
I'll sure be supporting the oil companies with my fuel efficient Uhaul rig 
on this trip, that's for sure! :o(

My mailing address now is:

Steve Gregory
850 Capital Walk Drive, Apt. #1308
Tallahassee, FL 32303

I'll have my mail forwarded to my new address once I have my apartment 
confirmed in Boise. Once again, I've never asked for anything from anyone 
for my page, I've enjoyed doing it and I'm glad that I started it back up 
again. I know it sounds stupid, but when I cancelled it a week or so ago, it 
was like I was saying goodbye to an old friend. Like I said it's been my way 
of repaying everyone for everything that I've gained over the years. If you 
want to donate something for the cause, it would be ungracious of me to turn 
it away. I appreciate it, I really do...

Thanks Doug,

Steve

Hey Steve,
What is your mailing address?  I would not mind chipping in to cover the
costs of your server.  I do it with some of the other listservs I find of
use.

Hi Denny,

You know what, I changed my mind. I called Homestead and talked with them,
explained the issues that I had with their service, and they said that
since I had been such a long time customer of theirs, they offered to
reduce the fees! You don?t get that too often these days!

They still had my webpage and content, and was able to restore everything
back. So it is back up: www.stevezeva.homestead.com

So it?s still here, and I will still keep this going. So if anyone still
needs a picture or two posted once in a while, I?m still here. I?ve put so
much time an effort into this already, I?m glad that I can continue...

Steve

Steve,

I had hoped that our work on the IPC Process Effects revision - the old
740 - could use some of the pictures.  Sorry they are mostly gone now.  I
have copied the other people working on that document.

Would you still be willing to share what you do have?

Let us know.

Denny Fritz

Hi Steve,

No I do not. I have some of the images on my own computer, but not all.
That
was one of the problems I was having with Homestead (aside from the ever
increasing fees), I couldn't back my page up and all the content on my own

computer. I could do a back-up through only through Homestead, but
couldn't
bring the content on to my own computer which I thought was strange, and
frankly pissed me off. It was one of the big reasons why I decided to pull

the plug...

Either will require a some amount of time on Steve's part.  I think more
time going to the IPC site if placing in separate folders, etc.

The question is whether you still have everything or not - Steve?

Guy is right,

Would it be possible to move some of the photos from Steve's sight to the
IPC site?

Gosh Steve, that site was a gold mine. Sorry to see it go.

Hi Craig,

Sorry to say that I've closed my site down. Homestead was raising their
fees
to the point that I had to think about the cost benefit that was coming
from
paying for it out of my pocket. IPC started the group-share site where
images can be posted, and I might have gotten a request or two once in a
while over several months, so I decided to shut it down...:o(

It was a fun ride while lasted though... :o)

Hmm, I'm getting a "Sorry, the site you requested has been disabled" msg
when accessing Steve's homestead site. Never had a problem before using
IE9,
although I did recently clear temp internet and Java files.

Is anyone else having a problem?
