it's not the smile, it's rather that something's lost in translation :) at first "yes, sir" always sounds a bit grumpy for us Italians, but that's because we very seldomly use that expression and when we do it is as if we wanted to underline we are compelled to answer yes (the reason is that it is the typical answer a soldier would give to any order a superior gives him) cheers -- Alessandro ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
