    YAGT (Yet Another Glue Thread)

    Search on Bookbinder's Glue. As mentioned above, pH will be a concern. However, if the books are the older "mass market" paperbacks it won't matter much since the paper will be acidic anyway. In the 90s publishers started going more with "trade paperbacks". These are a bit larger than the...

    Windows 10

    Are you talking about browser favorites? Those are already in a folder. After upgrading, your favorites will still be in the folder they're already in. If you use the same browser, after upgrading, you shouldn't need to do anything. Win 10 comes with MS' new browser called Edge, which is a...

    Windows 10

    To me, Win 10 is to Win 7 what Win 7 is to Win XP. XP turned into a fine operating system (for its day). Vista added a lot of good and some bad. Win 7 fixed the bad. A lot of what people loved in 7 was actually introduced in Vista. 10 and 8 are similar in that regard. 8 added a lot of...

    The NFL -- Is it just me?...

    I used to have the Sunday Ticket and spend all day Sunday watching football. I gave it up about 3 or 4 years ago, for the same reason. Boredom. The NFL has broken the rules and no one know how to tackle anymore. I watch a lot of hockey now.

    How about Wn 10

    Edge is basically still beta in all but name. There's supposed to be a significant update for it in the October timeframe. MS has said Edge will eventually support plugins (currently it does not), but I don't know if that's in the next update or not.

    It over

    I'm on Win 7, IE 10 with no ad blocker of any kind and I have no problems at all. (My current ads are for Vegas hotels as I just booked a trip there.)

    a new icon just appeared on my taskbar

    RockSim runs fine under Windows 10. I've been running the Win 10 previews for a few months now. None of my software has had any problems (including the finicky at the best of times music production software).

    HOLY MOLEY!!!

    I've been in the software biz for 20 years. I'd be happy to answer any questions he may have. I haven't worked in the military, but I've worked in the games, security, finance, insurance and legal industries, so have a pretty wide rage of experience.

    alternative to papering fins ?

    How are you applying the paper? When I first started papering, I tried to apply the paper to the fin and had mixed results, often getting bits of smudged glue on the wrong side of the paper. I've since found it easier to spread the glue on the paper laying flat, then press the fin into the...
