Hello Patrick, Thank you for your feedback and input, Patrick. I also have auto fill in that my computer uses, but does not work with SLAS. This only works if all the User names and passwords are exactly the same, and in today's internet owlrd, this is less and less the case. But you are also right, if we log in from another computer . . . someday these silly 3 pound pieces of plastic and a little metal will take over and make ALL our decisions including meals, evacuation time, mate selection, naming our children and all of lifes needless requirement. WHEN this does happen, we have to ReMember WHO gave these computers all this power - us'ins. Jim --- Patrick Wiggins <paw@wirelessbeehive.com> wrote:
Hi Jim,

I agree and I have had the same problem - with SO SO many passwords to remember today on the internet, this is far more a pain than a help, and a losing battle. Happily, as Ann pointed out, the gears are already in motion to again open Nova up to all. With luck that should happen by Monday.
I just have mine mailed now - LOT LESS hastle. But, alas, a lot less information. Those few who still get the paper copies miss out on quite a bit of stuff that just can't be included in the on line version either due to cost or technical limitations.
Why can't our SLAS website "remember" us after we log in once - many others can do that. I'm running Safari and Netscape on my Macs and both have an option to automatically fill in the logon and password information. The only problem I've found with that is that I get so used to the machine remembering my password that when I log in using someone else's machine I sometimes have trouble remembering the details. :)
My 3 cents worth. And very much appreciated. Members with comments and suggestions (and even gripes) need to voice them or the club will stagnate.
Patrick
