Nic, I've been looking at your code posts to servlet-interest now
for over a year and I have a couple things to say:
1. You are an efficient programmer and know this technology
extremely well;
2. You tend to get impatient with people at times.
Oh yeah, and I still think that the only culinary contribution
England has made to the world is fish-and-chips. :-)
Cheers!
Mark
And some extremely good ales....
