    Slippens - Stam and McGrory - Gilmore, equal on points, lead with 4 pairs on
    the Zero Lap

    Patrick Sercu, the organizer in Munich had to make some last minute changes to
    the original Pairs.

    Guido Fulst, still suffering from his injuries in the Dortmund Six Day was
    unable to start, and Frank Vandenbroucke telephoned at the last minute to say
    that he would not be on the start line. He gave no reason, but His
    Mr. Bookmaker team manager, Hilaire Van der Schueren, told VRT
    (Flemish Television) that Frank had personal problems and had not trained
    sufficiently to start.

    Sportdirector Sigi Renz, the Sports Director had to do some fast shuffling and
    the revamped start list saw Marvulli - Aeschbach split up with Marvulli
    partnering Bartko and Leif Lampater
    pairing with Alexander Aeschbach. Luke Roberts was paired up with up with
    Jimmi Madsen and a new Duo of Belgians Iljo Keisse and Wouter van Mechelen was
    formed.

    The four leading Pairs quickly established their dominance and by half way
    through the nights racing Slippens - Stam and McGrory - Gilmore topped the
    scoreboard equal on points with Risi - Betschart and Kappes - Beikirch in the
    same lap.

    Ah, thus greatly increasing the chances of winning for the other pairs.

    Thanks. I was about to dump FireFox, but then they came out with a patch that
    fixed most of my complaints. Which is a drag because I always compile from
    source rather than use the tarball and or slackpacks. (I'm a SlackRat myself
    🙂 )

    I did write them about the .MHT files though. They are not very common, and in
    fact Mozilla can read them, so it should be easy for the FireFox team to slide
    the requisite code over.

    That said though, many of the Linux/'nix geeks are dumping FireFox, and I
    myself was close.

    It is a bit of a peoblem though as I have a Fluxbox installer all set up and
    ready to go for the Geek Show on Nov 21 (Forgot the real name - Linux
    Exposition or somesuch) and it is all keyed in to use FireFox as default
    browser for all the applications and I'd hate to have to change all my code
    now.
