In the Immortal words of RODNEY KING,
"CANT WE ALL JUST GET ALONG" ok enough of this crap.
We've been warned, michael has made his decision warned us
HE'S not going to change his mind, so lets just do as he asks (since its his
list and service)
and drop this subject. Remember his service is a DICTATORSHIP along
benevolent it tis still a dictatorship and MR D is the head of it so what he
says goes lets quit aruging and sucking up more of his bandwidth and system
power when we could be talking about structures and arrays, lists, queries,
sql, sybase, xml, wap, fusebox or whatever the heck we could be doing
besides beating a dead horsey =)
