Sorry, my English vocabulary and orthography are my real bottlenecks ;/ It should have been "diseased". It's a quotation of Terry Pratchett. Some examples and the one I had in mind ... "'Multiple exclamation marks,' he went on, shaking his head, 'are a sure sign of a diseased mind.'" (Terry Pratchett in "Eric") "Five exclamation marks, the sure sign of an insane mind." (Terry Pratchett in "Reaper Man") "'And all those exclamation marks, you notice? Five? A sure sign of someone who wears his underpants on his head.'" (Terry Pratchett in "Maskerade") Hope to helped :) Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany PGP key valid: made 13.07.1999 PGP fingerprint: 2307 88FD 2D41 038E 7416 14CD E197 6E88 ED69 5653
