    I should add that I use a desktop.. nothing mobile or handheld.

    But what else would you expect from a 20th century guy?

    In the mid 60's I worked for a international oil company and our "computer room" took up a whole floor of a 38 story office building in downtown Montreal. Ah those were the days eh? Keyboard operators, punch cards and hours of running reports what would now take minutes, even seconds. I smile. πŸ™‚

    If I ever follow redbadger's example, please shoot me. With prejudice.

    So please allow time.
    Hi Russ,

    I miss having a log-on right there on the start page. Bit of a nuisance to have to click on a button to get to the place where I type username and pw. Same for log-off. Yeah, I know, it's just one click away, but this is not the only web site I log onto and it adds up.

    Russ,

    Please ignore the kids making a big fuss out of the changes.

    If they don't like Red Hot Pawn, let those suckers move to Chess At Work.

    Have not tried the app on my android tablet yet, sure hope it is not screwed up too.
    Now all I have to do is find out how to install anything on my Android phone without selling my soul for a nom-d'un-fils-de-putain G&*#&gle account. But that's off-topic here.

    You can sideload on to Android quite easily - I can even provide the RHP Android APK if that is the way you want to go.
