I'm wondering why the heck the screen on my new laptop is going lighter and darker, seemingly by myself. I know I must be hitting something that controls it, because it only happens when I type, but I can't figure out what it is.

I'm wondering what kind of device Mike's using to post, salt water and fog are generally bad for electronics.. And it's a proven fact you can't fish and
I'm saying it was my Treo 650 phone It worked about 3-4 miles offshore but once we got to the GE reef (7-8 miles off) It was toast...then the fog rolled in and we couldn't see more than 1/4 mile

I'm thinking it gets brighter and darker because you are blinking.

I'm saying Just don't open them.. that's what I do...I have automated bill pay and I just don't look. WAY too scary, But then my AC has been running almost continuously since April and won't go off til October.. ouch... on the bright side I never have to run the heater.

I'm trying not to be overly sensitive, but I think dude at the body shop thinks I know nothing because I'm a girl. I repeatedly told him that my body kit is not OEM and that I only found 2 places online where I can buy a replacement since it seems to be pretty rare. I told him that there aren't any OEM side skirts, just side strakes, but he made two phone calls (including one to the dealership) just to be sure.
