weeeeeh. i can't but look forward to that then... > Generally speaking you're SOL.

(2) well, obsolete whatever. point: it works. i don't really care about the 1.7 load nor do my users, but i got this spare baby lying around and i figure i might just as well. (3) it's not really mission critical. we aren't important people at all. so as i said: if on saturday it screws up or someone walks in with a case of beer, the system will be down until monday and noone will really care - *but* i am not shooting for that. martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- "Even if you persuade me, you won't persuade me." -- aristophanes
