Stupid me!

I was looking under El Mirage, and then Results -- where all the other results have been posted.  Why they're not posted where they'll end up is a mystery (at least to me).

So now I went back and opened the SCTA site again, clicked on the El Mirage Results in the yellow box in the center of the Home Page.  It went straight to the year's results with nothing in November.  I was there.  They had a meet.  Checked the calendar, Saturday was November.  Must gotta shovel more coal in the boiler to get this to work.

Stan,

Same thing happened to me, so it is just not you. Maybe they  take it offline when they are editing it.

I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

When you went to the site and didn't find the results - and then went back later and there they were - - did you first try clicking the "refresh" button on your computer?  Often it'll make recently-posted things visible.  The reason:

The computer stores lots of stuff, such as part of a website, inside itself so when you go there you'll get the site on the screen fast.  But - what you're really getting is the site from the last time you were there, not this current time.  A click of the refresh button usually is enough to tell the computer, in effect, "would you please check to make sure that's the latest possible information?".

There are other things that will slow down or interrupt the data on the information superhighway - now you know how to get around one of them.

OK, since I field all the complaints for the website I went there. Clicked on El Mirage on the left, clicked on results in the drop down box, clicked on Nov - bingo!

Got 'em. My next project is a road trip to Stan's house to take his computer away, he doesn't deserve it.

Maybe I spilled too much of that pink stuff in it.

I said I was fresh as a daisy -- closed out the site and went back in, "freshed" some more -- nada.

Dan -- you're welcome here in Bird-Doo as Roy says.  Don't see you much any more.  Lost my old ways to Impound.  Have to look for the White Goose.

Now Googled SCTA -- went that way -- and they appeared.  I'll never understand it -- just want to navigate it.
