whoa! thanks. re-installed Logicard Utility 3.0.2 today (in fact, had to re-install opsys and all applications, grrrrr) and find it will open my preferred .csv reader - just calls it "Excel".<br />

Have PM3 monitor, running Logicard Utility 3.0.2 on win2k.<br />How can i stop this program from creating 'c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Concept2\PM3 LogCard Data' each time the program runs?<br /><br />Sorry, but this is a religious issue with me. I detest needlessly long dir...

Mark - <br /><br />Wife and I share a bowl of oatmeal each evening just before bed. Common counsel for weight control is get yr eating done well before bed-time, but I have always slept better after a bit of food.<br /><br />One evening a few months ago wife was having trouble sleeping. I offered to...

Thought I would offer my recipe for oatmeal muffins, having made a large batch this morning. These are with rolled oats - not the wretched 1 minute variety. <br /><br />Oven to 425 deg F.<br />For 6 muffins<br /><br />Wet ingredients: blend thoroughly<br />0.5 cup lowfat milk<br />2 eggwhites<br />1...

apropos knees at the catch and backpain:<br /><br />i go over the knees for the catch, excepting the occassional odd strokes for variety, as with a shift to underhand grip for a few strokes.<br /><br />when first self-learning on the erg i devised the 'broomstick rule' to avoid back injury. imagine ...

nice - but...<br />...when do we get one for fedora linux?<br />

ok, i see it - mostly.<br /><br />have loosened the straps, still working at +/- 20spm.<br /><br />yes all backward motion can be arrested without use of the toestraps, just by the final snap of the bar into the abdomen.<br /><br />next step is to start the body forward on the recovery. here a light...

i put a D handle on my model B a month or so ago. mostly i row at cruise speed an hour or so a day rather than sprints, so no major forces involved.<br /><br />overall i like the D handle. it seems lighter. the extra length and anhedral are nice. 'natural' hand position is different from the origina...

WHOA! Just put a new bungee and chain on my 1988 model B. All these years never had taken up any slack in that bungee. Big difference! Strapless rowing is possible, but it now feels like pulling into a 15 knot wind.<br /><br />Agreed, that form (heels up to touch front of seat at the catch, fall bac...

this is most strange! 35 spm??? i cannot imagine rowing without foot straps. <br /><br />i row at 20 strokes per minute, +/- 1. at the catch, heels come up and sometimes touch the front of the seat (careful to keep elbows from passing forward of thighs to avoid curling the back too much). i then fal...

have a model B, recently used #2 son's model C for a few days while visiting. the C is of course quieter; the damper settings are different; but the measured work and power output per perceived input are remarkably consistent.<br /><br />(the C lacks the second, smaller, drive gear of the B and so c...

kept my model B in a large covered patio in south texas for most of a year some time ago. picked up a fair amount of dust, very few small rust spots. otherwise none the worse for it. i'd not evan consider outside without a good solid roof however

received today and installed retrofit model D handle for my model B.<br /><br />nice! a bit longer (wider) and with a bit of anhedral (downslope from center to ends). with 37 inch sleves, and 34 inch inseam, i can now row comfortably without having to hump the handle over the knees coming and going....

yeah, its a bummer. mostly i just keep my knees togather now, altho it decreases the power of the stroke a bit. sometimes for a few strokes i move the grip in and pass the wrists between the knees, just for variety.<br /><br />have a model D handle on order; supposed to be a bit wider.<br /><br />6 ...

bump<br /><br />good on ya -<br />- tempted, but i'm sticking with the ancient mariners<br />shu, usafa class of 65
