That argument about it being a topcrasher doesn't really carry any weight. topcrash is totally relative - you will always have topcrashers. If you have a single crasher, then that is a topcrasher. The question you really need to ask is two fold 1) How many people does this affect? 2) How badly does it affect these people? (e.g. how frequently) Ian
