I just now completed me weekly backups. Before actually running Acronis
2015 (my backup application), I clean up my discs. As described on my <
http://www.rossde.com/computer/computer_backup.html> Web page, I do the following:
I delete temporary and cache files, compress SQLite databases,
compact Thunderbird mail folders, and offload onto a flash drive any
software installer files that I have accumulated.
Today, I thus recovered over 50 Gb.

Trump wants to continue his war against Iran until that
nation surrenders unconditionally. I thought the U.S.
learned a hard lesson in Vietnam and Afghanistan.
