While I've been away...

... my computer seems to have forgotten about the card reader I use to transfer photos from my camera to my desktop (and thence to the internet). Now when I plug it in, it tells me that this drive must be formatted before I can use it. I'm sure I can find a workaround: via my notebook, possibly? Or it might respond to durham_rambler speaking to it severely, bot not tonight, as he is at a meeting. So tonight I will do something else...
