Thank-you (all of you) for pointing that out. This list is always educational (well almost always...) This always confuses me, I think it a little counter intuitive to have the option there at it's default setting and then to comment it out. It always gives me the impression that if I remove the options it will change to the setting. Is there some logic behind this? I mean since it's the default setting why not leave out the comment? To me that would be more intuitive and I would not have to read the comments at the beginning of the file ;-)
