OK Ron, you can look at this post. I have my task bar on auto hide. Also, all the tiny icons that build on the task bar are always hidden ... I only have about 4 that show. My 19" monitor is big enough. I'd have to sit about 7 feet away with a 42" monitor!


Edit - the info I first posted was incorrect - got the wrong info from someone.

I stopped on my way home to watch a local news truck and announcer do a "on the spot news story". A 10 year old kid climbed a tree about 1/4 mile from my house and somehow touched the power line ... 13,800 volts. He fell 20 feet and got stuck in a crook of the tree and was not breathing. A neighbor was told what had just happened by some other kids, and the guy climbed up the tree and got his head out of the branches and started CPR while holding him in the tree. The kid started breathing on his own before the EMT's and local fire truck got there within 5 minutes.

The kid got a burned finger, and he is in good condition at the hospital.
