slow threading

taking it very slow not because it is  the way to go, but because i'm   fearful of going back to cervical problems. threading some, stopping to rest my neck and doing other stuff, like printing on fabric, stitching

and even some gardening.

i found that all the new growth in my clematis is coming out curly and some parts of the stems are open exposing the inner parts and flat. 

i've sprayed  with a lot of neem oil last week and the newest shoots still come out curly. so now i'm using copper sulfate if there's a chance that it is a mold.

can someone please come to rescue?

on the rant department 

 the prblems w. ff4 continue. i visited one of the help forum and there was a long list of people experiencing misery, so it helps to know i have company :(
however there was a generous geek who provided a solution to unninstall and go back to your last ff. and without more preamble:

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.

To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

  

and the newest rant:

something changed without notice at flickr. now even if you have a paid account you do not get the html code. you are forced to use their blog this application which wipes out your sig line, forces you to change font and sizes back to your settings the post goes out with the title of your photo  and some  more disfunctions. paying does not assure anything nowadays, that's what happens when companies get too big. i do not understand the why of this because if you click on the photo you are taken directly to flickr , so what is the issue?

luckily there are other hosting companies. flickr take note.

  
oops too quick. i swear that while i was deep-in-rant-mode they added the html code button.


however, no matter what i do i don't seem to be able to go back  and post in my old font and size settings. GRRRRRRRRRR.

addendum:
went line by line until i found the %**)/&$ offending code. there went the morning.
