There is plenty of room for debate about the policy (and I agree with you that the policy could in fact be wasting everyone's time for no actual legal purpose), but at any given point in time, whatever the policy is, we should be following it, right? Or - if the policy is wrong, let's change it! -Archie -- Archie L. Cobbs
