You are correct, although again I was thinking more about the willingness (or perhaps compulsion?) to experiment with it when such experimentation isn't currently needed and to be anxious to experiment with it when it is new and unfamiliar as traits more common in geeks than in the mundane majority whose VCR and microwave have been continuously flashing "12:00" ever since they brought them home and first plugged them in sometime in the last millennium . . . . . . ronn! :) _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
