Interestingly, (or maybe not), I wrote up an original reply where I was going to go on and explain exactly why I didn't like it; but - as I wrote in the followup - nobody wants to read that. It's been said before by others (millions of times, it seems) and I wouldn't be saying anything I hadn't directly said before. I also see little point in arguing (specifically on this list) because typically most arguments don't tend to be what I would call 'productive' anymore, i.e. some "discussion partners" no longer follow the rules respectfully :) (Certainly I'm not referring to James here). Nevertheless, Ken, I probably won't keep my (informed) opinions to my self, and nor should anyone else, in my opinion. It's a good way to learn and explore topics. -- silky http://www.programmingbranch.com/
