Yes, exactly, but they must have a -1 spin or else you get plaid.

I think it's a lot like being caught in the event horizon of a super massive black hole. I'm actually gone forever, but you observe me, ever so slowly, sending these messages - which are merely random streams of electrical impulses anyway. You only interpret them as a real messages because they don't radically conflict with your expectations of reality and so they can be integrated with your mental frame. DC> Been nice seeing you on the list, Pete....<grin> :-) Thanks... I really should get some real work done now, but... lack of sleep dictates it is time to play... at least for one more minute... Something in this exchange has reminded me of something amusing. Anybody remember Dark Star? I'll paraphrase... Commander: "Bomb. You need to stand down and come back into the ship. The command to deploy was an error caused by a malfunction in the bomb bay." Bomb: "I distinctly remember getting the command to deploy." ... A discussion of existentialism ensues in an effort to convince the bomb that the command should not be believed because there is no way for the bomb to know that the command is "real". The idea is that since bomb can only fulfill it's purpose once it shouldn't do it by mistake. This works... sort of... but then things go horribly wrong... Commander: "So then you'll come back in side?" Bomb: "No." -- The commander is desperate and loses it... Commander: "Bomb! I order you to stand down and come back inside!" Bomb: "You are merely a stream of random electrical impulses, therefore I will ignore you." Bomb thinks for a minute... "First there was nothing, and then there was me." Commander: "Hey, bomb?" Bomb: "Let there be light." _M To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
