That sentence was a set-up for the next one. It was intended to make obvious that when I said "*any* crime" I did indeed mean *any* crime, not only crimes like murder. I guess that was lost on you.

But then, I have already become accustomed to people reading things in my posts that are not there... :-( Jeroen _________________________________________________________________________ Wonderful World of Brin-L Website: http://www.Brin-L.com Tom's Photo Gallery: http://tom.vanbaardwijk.com
