Forgive me for this off-topic post, but I thought those of you using Iphones should be warned of their addictive quality. I have two phones. My Iphone and a Rzr which I use as a second alarm by my bed. (No land lines.) I set them both to get me up earlier than usual this morning and found myself repeatedly pressing the screen on the Rzr to shut the alarm and wondering why the lousy thing wasn't shutting off, worrying it was broken...ahem...Rzrs don't have touch screens. Iphones do. When I was fully awake I pushed the button on the Rzr and was okay, though embarrassed. :)

<DIV><FONT style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 14px; FONT-STYLE: normal; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f5f8f0">> </FONT>Shawn posted a fix for this until 10.5.5 comes out, which is supposed to address all the problems as I understand. Of course, I also believe that this version only works on Intel macs. I cut and pasted below. I know at least one person in my squadron used this with success.</DIV>
