I generally find that Fredrik's rudeness quotient is satisfactorily biased towards discouraging ill-informed comment. As far as rudeness goes, I've found your approach to this discussion to be pretty obnoxious, and I'm generally know as someone with a high tolerance for idiotic behaviour. If your intention was to troll you could not have crafted your contributions in a better way. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://holdenweb.blogspot.com Recent Ramblings http://del.icio.us/steve.holden -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
