No one has gotten any trickles reported or credits > since June 15th as far as I can see. >I apologise,must have been dreaming good thoughts.I am sure I saw something But now!!! It is gone.I do not understand.Sometimes everything can be Abinoramal.Will keep looking for the people that got trickles and Crefit today. Do not understand how they {Messages} can dissapear,I am becomming very Disappointed after plugging Boinc and all experiments on a Radio interview, for my Band that played in London this weekend.Things can only get Better.
