Thanks to all of you who took the time and voted for Orchid. In just
24 hours 448 votes where received, Ranking our community at the top
25 Ezine [average score 9.70].
I tried three times. I get an error message. I tried e-zine and got
through fine. Unfortunately I was unable to ascertain an appropriate
thread to follow to Orchids vote tally. Help if you can. Maybe others
are having the same problem? Tim

Dear Tim, Since I am not the webmaster of http://ezine-universe.com/
I really can’t give you a smart answer. All I know that you have to
follow the link listed below and place your vote :))
I have been trying to log onto the web site address you gave so that
I could cast my vote ( a l0 plus), but have been unable to get the
website. I was told there was no such address, then when I tried
again, I was told that I was not “elegible to enter that site,” I
checked the address I typed in and there were no errors in spelling
or punctation. I tried first by using aol “keyword” and then tried
again using yahoo. What am I doing wrong??? Do I type in the
entire address you gave including the ID number? Please advise
as I would like to cast my vote. thanks. Alma
FYI: it worked just fine for me. Sometimes such ‘errors’ disappear
if one leaves off & then tries again later. A propos, sort of, I
recently heard this wonderful new term on the CBC: “percussive
maintenance.” ie–malfunctioning computer/stereo/other
wonder-of-modern-technology restored to working order by a hearty
WHAP… --Andy
Hi All, with my mouse click I brought Orchid to an honourable no 1
position in the number of votings currently totalling 939. What bugs
me is that the last figure I saw on number of subscribers to Orchid
was well above 3000 (or was it 5000) - and only 939 voted so far.
So everyone out there, cast your vote for this supreme service being
provided for us - and thank you Dr Aspler for your efforts.
Hi Alma, It has been some time since i used aol, but assuming that
they have the same mouse patterns of usage as almost every other pc
program in the E- world give this a try:
The Basics: When you see a line that is in italics, usually a
different color, try clicking on that line. It is called a link. This
will usually take you to the website/page in question. If that does
not work then try this: Your mouse has two buttons. A left, to make
things happen. A right, for a menu. Try wiping through the address
with the left button depressed. Just the address. That should
"highlight" or turn the address a different color. Now right click on
the address for a menu. Choose “copy”. Now go to the top section of
whatever browser you are using. There should be a small open window
that shows where you are (an address.) Use the left mouse depressed
trick again to turn that address a different color (highlight.) Now
right click on that space for a menu. Choose “paste” and the new
address that you have just copied from the body of this message will
appear. Hit the enter key on your keypad and the browser should take
you to the new address. Good luck! -Larry
I tryed as hard as you did to place my vote,but I wasn’t able to do
so for some unknown reason.Hanuman,spelled the address again and it
still did not work out.After trying for more then an our (I don’t
give up easely)I realised that I can’t place my vote.I going to write
an e-mail to them in order to let them know that some people do not
have access to this address.This is really the last thing I can
do.maybe it helps if other orchid members do the same thing,who knows
!!!
