Nick, i think you took my comments too much personally. I promise i will never bring it up again.Also i have more interesting things to do than to come here from time to time just to say, "TOO MUCH CODE" It was just a coincidence and you should not be following my tracks, unless for a good reason. You are a "bug" tracker ;) Can we move on ?
