SENILE VIRUS:
This new VIRUS does NOT attack the computer -- it seemingly attacks the COMPUTER USER -- so neither Norton or McAfee does much good. The virus is most severe on computer users who were born before 1950!
Symptoms of the SENILE VIRUS:
1) Causes you to send the
same e-mail twice.
2) Causes you to send blank
e-mails.
3) Causes you to send e-mail
to the wrong person.
4) Causes you to send e-mail
back to the person who
sent it to you.
5) Causes you to forget to
attach the attachments.
6) Causes you to hit "SEND"
before you have finished
the e-mail.
| CHRISTMAS SHOPPING !Christmas time and presents to buy; get the bargain of the season ..
a FRIENDS OF PARKS T-shirt. Green with a black or white logo!
It was decided by the executive to sell the remainder of the shirts at a bargain price of only $10.00 each since the original logo has been slightly modified -- and, there are still a few of the shirts with the old logo.
Editorial comment:
There is a person who would love to get those shirts out of her basement … and will DELIVER the shirts if you call ..

| CONSERVATION NOTES:
--- Proposed Jumbo ski plan is still a strong concern. Check Jumbo & EKES websites for updates.
--- The Park Lodges Strategy is unacceptable in a wilderness park such as Valhalla Provincial Park. We
will pursue this provincial government endeavour.
--- A 70-km transmission line is being proposed by a local "Kootenay Community Company" across the
Purcells in the Glacier Creek Area. Glacier Power BC Ltd. of Nelson.
--- More information to follow but in the meantime visit their website at galaciercowerbc.com/
