I thought it was "ok" and didn't want to flame you - until now when I saw
that you "could have found out the answer to it in about 10-15 minutes"
on your own (well, not realy). In such a situation the correct thing is
IMO to actually spend these 10-15 minutes and then post your code and ask
the list how this could be done better.
