Doc John, I initially thought it was heavy traffic. This is a large, interactive site. It's hesitating now, at 4:33 PM with 50 members online. It hesitates when I move from tab to tab, forum to forum, or replying. Generally, it's all slow. The icons take longer to pop up. I even considered sunspots

Hope I didn't offend you by sounding harsh. I really assumed it was my laptop and was looking for advice on how to speed things up. Or what I was doing that was causing these periods of hesitation and being bounced off. This is a wonderful site, well maintained and have never had a breach of security.

I'm placing this post here because I brought the original post public and should apologize public if I offended. (I liked the smiley's - they left the post friendly as I believe you intended).
