The message to bugs@ was fortunately ignored there, but is a prime example of just what Crystal describes. The assertions in that message do not merit the energy it would take to refute them. And I suspect that bios_23498234908 would for one reason or other balk at the suggestion to read the source code. On the other hand, that message also proved too tempting for some of us as material to taunt the original poster with, and misc@ happened ;P So for the archives, Crystal definitly represents the voice of reason here (as if there was any doubt) - Peter -- Peter N.
