Oh hey IT LOOKS LIKE I HAVE ACCESS AGAIN!
(I have had a weird IPV6 issue, but resolving it appears to require a great deal of yak shaving. I wasn't going to keep bugging J to fix a problem that isn't his to solve.)
So let's see what trouble I can get into, now that I'm back. For now, anyhow.
@sjvn No, this is a problem with my aging MacOS system. The real fix is, "move to the newer computer," which you know means losing at least an afternoon.
But thanks, dear.
