You have even less of a life than me! To make it worse, I'm replying to you on a Linux list at 9PM on a Friday night and watching Gort stomp around, while the Earthlings scatter like chickens. Great screaming, I give those ladies a solid 9. Now I have less life than you, unless you go into devel on a ScreamOmeter. Make it command line and you really win. Oh God, there goes an Edsel. Kill me now. "Yes sir General, that's where he's staying." Someone kill that snitch, first. <sighs> Ric -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ...the Sin of Ignorance, and ...the Sin of Stupidity.
