Run the networking wizard.

Start>Network Connections>Click the Icon "Setup a home or office network".

Once you have run the wizard on both computers you then can share folders. Right click on a folder and select "Sharing and Security".

Boy are you lucky that all the Canadian "Somebodys" are still buried under 40 ft. of snow*.
They have lots of time to answer questions.

When the Canadian summer** comes he'll be busy reshoeing all his sled dogs and making repairs to the igloo.


*Canada really uses the metric system, so I should have said "40 meters" of snow instead. I think meters and feet are the same thing, but don't really care enough to Google it.

**The Canadian summer typically arrives on July 24th or so and lasts through July 26-27.
The entire country comes to a halt as the inhabitants revel in the (relative) warmth and trade stories of rumored sightings of the Sun.
After summer ends, Canadians go back to their normal lives...drinking beer and napping.
Except for the French-Canadians...they continue to piss off everybody year-round.

Sorry to hear that, we hadn't heard.
The Royal Canadian Sled Dog Mail should be reaching the US any day now with last winter's mail.

I've heard that whale blubber fires can be very destructive, I hope you didn't lose your pemmican supply and all your trade furs.

BTW, how's your whittled wood hard drive project coming along?
You Canadians are sooo resourceful.
Did the sperm oil/ivory bearing combination work out as hoped?
Did you break the 5 RPM barrier yet?
I looked in my latest copy of Canada Today (dated Winter 1987) for a progress report, but all I found were ads for "male enhancement" products and mukluks.

I thought I already said I didn't care.
But since you guys won't let it drop, I did a bit of Google research.

Lynx is correct, there is a difference between European ( from hereon called "Imperial") meters and Canadian "metres".

1 meter = 3.2808399 feet
This is an Imperial meter.

1 Canadian metre= 1 Imperial meter + the average snowfall in July
Which means that a Canadian metre = approx. 24 feet.

This may change as global warming accelerates.

Arrrh clocker... You just don't know snow. :snooty:

And it wasn't a "whale blubber fire"... It was a fuel oil accumulation fire.

Got me there, eh?
You're right...I don't "know" snow.
I do know oxygen deprivation...here in Mile-High Denver we depend on bottled air to survive.
My favorite is the Evian with a hint of raspberry.


And it wasn't a "whale blubber fire"... It was a fuel oil accumulation fire.
*sigh*
I just know you're dying for me to ask.....
WTF is a "fuel oil accumulation fire"?

We use nothing but clean, safe and efficient nuclear power down here.
I vaguely remember fossil fuels, but it's been so long...
I definitely remember reading that at last year's US/Canadian Trade Negotiations we offered to sell you the technology for "electricity", but all you would offer in return was a blueprint for a "Caribou Powered Personal Transportation Device".
This turned out to be a (crudely) modified Amish carriage pulled by some sort of prehistoric antlered creature.
Which, as it happens, we can import from China at half the proposed Canadian price.

Globalization is a bitch.

Metro Montréal - Laval
10:48 AM EDT Friday 10 June 2005

High heat and humidity warning for
Metro Montréal - Laval continued

A warm and very humid airmass will cover these regions today and
Saturday this giving umconfortable conditions during this period,
people experiencing chronic diseases (cardiovascular,
cerebrovascular, respiratory, renal) could see their condition
worsen. Moreover, any extended exposure to these conditions could
cause discomfort, including cramps, fatigue and heat strokes.

Oh you slippery, sneaky Canadians!
Note that this "weather report" fails to provide any actual temperatures at all.
Further research through a less deceptive source ( Fox News!) reveals that this "warm and very humid" airmass will send your temps skyrocketing all the way up to 13C.

How do you folks survive vacations to Jamaica?

Hehe, just realised what I did wrong, couldn't figure it out when I looked at the post yesterday.
