The less intellectually challenged among us might notice the appropriateness of using the phone to discuss the problem, and the mails to convey a floppy disk or tape carrying the solution of the problem. Neil, your responses in this discussion have long descended into pure noise. Why not go away and let those capable of abstract thought consider the issues and present you with the solution without any further bother to your probably busy day trying to remember how to tie your shoes? Followups to alt.flame, the only appropriate forum for your postings. Kent, the man from xanth. <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us>
