[Blindtlk] cds and dvds

[Jude DaShiell]

Talk about brains mis-filing stuff!  When the first message in this 
thread came up, I had used a web site several years ago which maybe 
could have helped with clean copies of foobar2000 and vlc.  The problem 
was the information was mis-filed.  When I started to get a clue net 
came up and netmeeting and I knew those two were wrong.  It was as I was 
adding the second cup of coffee to the calculator this morning I 
remembered the url.  Now understand what I mean by clean in this 
context.  It means you get the software you downloaded without any of 
the commercial garbage usually added by other sites not related to your 
software title.  That's what http://www.ninite.com/ provides.  Quite a 
while ago, they even added nvda as a package and they have others too. 
Fortunately coffee is available for morning additions to the calculator 
otherwise most of humanity would end up low functioning and remain so 
throughout life.
