What wuz you writing it in? Most writing programs ask you about saving when you shut down. Or did the power demon strike again?

If you are working in Libre Office, 'tis well worth setting up automatic save. Tools>Options>Load/save and make a choice.

I had forgotten where it was. Sitting here writing on my telephone the view is limited. And the browser crashed a few times. :)

Now you've got me confused. Here DownUnder, telephones are for talking and listening. Writing is done with a quill on to paper. :happy:

That's what my wife says, "You could write quicker with a pencil." But then she barely uses email.
